Default Rear Suspension 2010 XR5

Hi,

I have a knocking noise in the rear suspension and have been investigating. Could be rear shock mounts??
Noticed this when i had the car jacked up. Looks as though the bushes have worn??

Thanks
Stew

Check rear swaybar links - mine has a Mazda 3 adjustable whiteline swaybar and changed the links to suit to the Mazda style, it broke 3x sets of the crappy Whiteline swaybar links and it would make a real loud knocking noise over slight rough country roads, a banging noise.

Changed to Pedders swaybar links and no dramas.
