hey, well i had this problem in a prior, old thread before, but i THOT the problem was the wolt was broken off on one of the 2 bolts on the rear driverside coilover... so, now my question is, what else could the noise be? i replaced the bolt and its the same noise.... even if i push down right above the coilover i can hear it... and it rattles like crazy on tight turns cause of the diff... so its annoying me and i wanna fix it.... only thing i can think of is MAYBE bad ball joint!?!? but how do you check that/fix that? btw, they are kei office, if that helps... which means im fucked prolly.... and im not 100% sure its the coilover, just thats all that makes sense.... thanks for any help in advance!
