  1. I found this - This sounds interesting from that thread - Check the end links of the rear sway bar. You will have to remove them to check them because they are always under a little tension. it doesn't take much play for one of them to make a hell of a lot of noise.
  2. 160K on the 2013 T.C. Rattle in the right rear. Jacked it up in the air to investigate. It's not a wheel bearing (didn't suspect that anyway). The spare tire is tight. i tried moving the suspension via another jack on the rear leaf and a huge pry bar. Nothing was obviously wrong - because I'm here now ?. Question 1 :Are the leaf spring bushing prone to wearing on these vehicles? Or are they a "lifetime" part typically? Question 2 Any thing else that is known to be common culprit? Rear shocks replaced a year ago- along with the struts. Struts went bad and were replaced for free. Could one of the rears be gone? Napa brand shocks and struts btw. As I see it it can only be basically 3 sub assemblies. 1. shock or shock bushing(s) 2. leaf or leaf spring bushing(s) 3. sway bar bushings I searched for a while. Nothing came up as a common problem. Or I didn't look long enough. Nothing in the suspension forum about this.
