Yup. That what I thought it was at first. Then I checked the wiper assembly too. Definitely coming from under the car.

With this being one of the most popular bars on the market, you would think there would be at least one other instance of this kind of noise occurring and there's not so, I'm going stand firm on it's something else.

If you want to send the bar and the bushings to us I'll install it in our shop car.


Ill wait for the new bushings first. If it remains after i'll pm you about trying this.

In the OP..... I thought you already replaced the bushings?

I did. I am doing it again. Third time is the charm... hopefully.

So I thought my endlinks were okay since they moved around freely and smooth. After feeling how stiff new OEM links are WOW was I wrong.

With new links/ bushings/ different grease all noises are gone now, what a difference!

Apologies to @jbarone;, you were right, it definitely was not the bar/bushings. Makes sense that the stiffer bar would cause noise vs stock bar with shot endlinks.

One question though, my first two set of bushings were red, this set was black. Are they different duro? or is it just cosmetic?

Hmmmm, I believe I mentioned those way back. Next time trust some of the suggestions from the knowledge bank of MSF.
