Hello everyone. I recently put a post up on on a clunking sounds I was hearing when I turned left. Today I had some time and saught to find some answer. I found a rusty pair of pliers in the engine compartment. That eliminated most of of the noise.

I took it for a test drive, still heard something only a small clunk. So I jacked up the civic. The wheel did not wobble so I eliminated hub problems?

Anyways I kept looking and saw this was unattached.

I know I can spend hours researching on google and youtube for what this part is and find out and fix it, or I could ask the knowledgeable people on here who always have great advice on how to fix it!!





And this is the other one on the other side. Doesn't look too healthy??

Yep. Sway bar end links. Looks pretty crusty, but you should be able to get a new set on there fairly easy.

Boy am I glad I moved to the desert :wtf:

End links. I'd say put them together with anti-seize so you can take them apart in the future...but I think they will disintegrate before the bushing ever wear out. Anti-seize will keep urethane bushings from squeaking better than anything else I've found.
