    I had a rattle f&r in my 06 GP, it was a rusted/loose park brake cable r/r. When it hit a bump you could hear it slap in the rear & the rest of the cable going forward would wiggle and make noise against its brackets....
    For the record : I am NOT a naked meth-head who shoves rocks up my butt.

    I'd double check the rear end links. I had just replaced mine with Moog and one went bad quickly. I was going through the same thing you were until i jacked it up and shook things. Ended up being the end link that had less than 2k miles on it.

    Installed O'Reilly front sway bar links in the front. They went bad in a week! I had better luck with Detroit Axle links from Ebay. Lasted about a year before they went bad. Half the price too.

    I don't know I just saw this have you or anyone had any luck with the Detroit Axle control arms I know some of their other parts reviews are not so favorable but the reviews on Amazon for the Detroit Axle control arms were quite favorable.
    I'm just curious I already got them they seem like they're made pretty nice does anybody know how I get into my control panel to set up my notification so I get emails for these subscriptions I have?
