I have a 99 GT that's has a clunk/pop in the suspension when the weight shifts in the car or when turning over a bump at slow speeds. It started after installing MM caster plates and MRT street suspension kit. I've found a lot of threads on the topic (including my own) but I'm still not able to fix it in my car. I've taken it back to the installer and nothing is every noticably loose. They re-tighten everything to spec and the clunk doesn't happen as often... but it is still there and it comes back within a few weeks.
A lot of threads mentioned that the cc plate bearing was to blame or that the shocks weren't tightened all the way to the cc plate. I know it's a simple question- but how can I test this at home? I have an electric impact wrench but when I try to loosen the nut holding the shock to the cc plate, it just spins the shock. Is there anything I can look for or try out to rule out the bearing?
Thanks,
Jim
