91+ rear end noises

["Bob D'Amato" <mx@mamie.snet.com>]

FYI for those of you with 91 and newer 90's... I had a strange groaning 
coming from the back of the car (Unfortunately, they werent the same 
cause as Andre's groans....(Like we forgot about THAT one!))  Anyway, the 
link rods that go from the strut tower to the sway bar has a nylon socket 
that starts to groan after a while. Lubrication worked for a while but 
didnt last long, dealer cost is about 75 each... there are 2 in the front 
also.

Someone posted a question about that a while ago...
The noise can be very elusive
