Ok first off I've looked at the other threads and can't find what i am looking for exactly i saw where they were talking about cv axle and control arms, mine is coming from the front right side of my car, i asked a guy at work and said it might be the axle boot that its cracked or spli, that the boot helps to keep everything lubricated and if it is split or what not it, it does make that popping noise and im ready to fix whatever the problem is. thank you ahead of time for anyone's help

control arm bushings/sway bar end links/strut bearings. Most likely the first. We sell a lifetime replacement set of all weather spherical control arm bushings, 199.

hope it works out, good luck.

I was think it was the bushing but figured id ask around thank you for your help ill get the tire off thus week, is there a way i can see if its the physically?

Hopefully the bolt that goes across the sub frame and the control arm is not stuck, mine was stuck and we had to cut it off to change out the bushing... And I feel u I did the clutch at my job and then I seem that bushing was bad so I had to go buy that and the bolt I cut off and now after puttin everything back my tob is mest up so now I'm goin to drop the transmission down for the 3 time

a bad cab in an FE5 arm. This one is a cheap malibu replacement that was improperly installed.

Mine was worse lmao I just change out both but only the passenger one was bad

I have the FE1 control arms. Will these not work with my suspension?

Cobalt steel arms generally cost more to buy than alloy arms, although the prices seem to fluctuate on the aftermarket. But no, putting an alloy insert into a steel arm is not a good idea, basically.

I am thinking yes. It was awful. Miracle we could save the arm.

I had a POPing noise coming from the right side and many parts later it wound up being the sway bar bushings. They were worn and allowing the sway bar to contact the control arm

When will people learn. Just go Get a 2 ton press and it will save you a lot of time, trouble and probably money. I got mine for $130 and it's already paid for itself after doing my CAB's and my wife's wheel bearings. (Ford Focus wheel bearings have to be pressed into the knuckle)

o i c. I have seen Eibach break before but they were grey in color from eibach, must be the other style. I sincerely suggest our YYZ springs, guaranteed for as long as you own the car, never to do that. cheers
