Suspension popping
Hey all - having some recurring suspension noises from the suspension. I have already relubed the brake slide pins and replaced the sway bar bushings. Any other suggestions? Wheel lugs are tight.

it may be the bushings , either front or rear...we just went thru this, and replaced all4, Bilstein shocks w/ Racing beat springs. Rides fantastic,minimum lowering effect. after all, the originals al were going on 11 years old.

Hmmm...check tie rods/ball joints, may be loose. checking sway bar bushings is easy with car on lift, make sure nor cracked/dry rotted. dealer said ours were bad, but our Mazda loving mechanic showed me they were good. Don't be afraid to ask questions of your mechanic. Good luck!

Can you describe when it does or does not happen?
Loose alignment bolts, for example, can generate popping noises when the suspension exceeds a certain deflection amount, usually at higher load transitions.
