could it be the upper strut mounts?
so i had the a-arm tsb done to my car a few weeks back. it was quiet for a few weeks and is still much quieter than it was pre-tsb. however, i did an autox ths weekend and the clicking came back. i noticed it a few days back for the first time on a rather steep crossover on a split median highway. its still not clicking when entering my drive or when going over speed bumps like before.
im wondering if perhaps i might have defective upper strut mounts too. ive heard from sam strano and other folks that the factory gt500 mounts, which i think we are using from the factory (right?) have been known to break with heavy use and click. what do you guys think, broke the new a-arms already or could it be the strut mounts?
anyone have a vid that shows what it sounds like when the front mounts click. with the mods mine is too loud to really hear clearly and for now its only when the front suspension is fully loaded the car does it on both sides.
edit: actually, it sounds just like this vid i found, guess that is my problem:
