Default Rattle in the rear.....

I have aftermarket Hellman sway bar and LCA's. a year later, I started getting a lot of rattle and sqeak noises from rear suspension during take offs and going over bumps. Took out the bar and lubricated all the bushings. For LCA I did same thing. Put everything back and the sqeak went away but the rattle continues especialy over bumps. I checked everything from exhaust clearence to shocks and can't figure out. It is especaily more pronounce on the right side. Very embarassing to drive it since it sounds like the old clunker at times. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am ready to pull the bar and to drive without it to see what happens.

Do you have an adjustable PanHard bar? Check the Jam nuts ...

Ugh! I have the same issue that just started like 2 months ago! The only mods I have are new wheels and tires and I lowered the car a month ago. But the rattle started after the new wheels/tires and before I lowered it. Check the exhaust clamps and hangers, nothing. Checked the trunk, spare tire, and jack, everything is tight. I have no idea what it is [:@]
