my AXR cluck fix kit is coming out this weekend.
It worked for 5 weeks, kinda. Over very large bumps, with uneven pavement, I would still get a mild, reduced/quiet clunk noise. It was 1000 times better than it was before, and it only happened in extreme conditions like I said. Driving everywhere else, I never heard the clunk.
After about 4-5 weeks, I got lots and lots of squeaking. Every bump or un-even patch of patch of road would make a very annoying squeak sound. I bought some more formula 5 and lubbed up the bushing AT EVERY OIL CHANGE. This would "fix" the problem for about a week, and the squeaks would come right back.
Now, what I am getting is even better...(sike). Whenever I go over a bump, un-even payment, speed bumps, driveway curb, or a penny in the road, I get a LOUD metal on metal CLANK noise. Its been like this for the last 2 weeks or so. You can hear it a mile away. When I hit a bump, even the smallest of bumps, it sounds like the entire rear sub-frame is going to break off the car.
Now, to answer everyones questions and avoid heat from the nay-sayers:
1) I installed the kit exactly, word for word, like the instructions said.
2) I have both the original and revised brackets. Neither one of them solved my problem
3) All of the hardware has been tightened down, and securely mounted in the car
4) I used Forumla 5 energy suspension grease at every oil change
5) I have the revised bracket/bushings (grease-able bushing)
