<strut replaced on my 80...strange banging noise...cross between a strut and
<a bad bushing...
In my 87 4000S, I have a noise that is coming from the right side strut. It
sounds just as you described, and has been there for quite some time. I have
already had the strut bearing replaced and it didn't stop. As I am going to
install new struts and shocks next week myself, I hope to rid it of the
problem finally. Note: I have KYB on the rear and the fronts might be also.
I wonder if it's a bad strut all this time. I have already replaced the
control arm bushings, so that's not it. Sounds very familiar though...
