Help identifying noise source (Video Inside)

[woolveren]

Hi All,

I had created a thread few months back regarding a suspension chirping noise coming from the front right side, but never figured out the actual cause for the noise. I have chceked control arms using pry bars as mentioned in the old thread below but everything looked okay..

So today I took some videos of few suspension items while in motion and the clunk/chirping noise can be seen/heard more clearly from them. To me it looks like the front passenger side rear lower control arm is having too much play in the video @.06 seconds compared to the front sway bar/lower control arm joint in the second half of the video @.17 seconds.

Please watch the video and let me know your comments..

PS: I would also appreciate any suggestions in mounting camera at any other angle to pin point the noise source..

When my suspension creaked, it was the lower control arm (front right) that had started to crack, and eventually failed as I was pulling out of a parking spot.

Could just be dry bushings too. I'd spray some silicone lube on the bushings, see if that helps. New control arms are cheap.
