I upgraded the factory sway bars on my 96 Miata with a pair of solid FM bars. Since then, I can hear a small clunk sound from my right rear whenever I pull up a driveway, even at 5mph. I've email FM support and basically they asked me to recheck the torque and do more investigation.
I've check the torque on all 4 brackets and endlinks. I haven't bother with the suspension bolts since those bolts look like they haven't been touched since coming out of the factory and probably need a few shots of WD40.
I've grab the wheel wells on all 4 corners and rocked the car pretty hard, but did not hear any noise. I've also tap the catback with my foot at different places, harder than I imagine going up a driveway will shake it, and heard nothing.
Also, when I installed the rear bar, it was pretty hard to get both end links attached, so the rear sway bar is pretty loaded. I haven't notice any clunking noise when I autocross, and I've done 17 runs with the new bars already.
The only thing I can think of is to tape that area up and see if I can find out that parts are banging against each other. I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks, Mack
