Lower Control Arm Bushing?
#11
Not sure. I would imagine that dropping the subframe is more involved, and takes more time, but in the end it's more straight forward. Finaggling it though the driver's side would be more difficult, but it would require much less as far as removal.

It takes about 20 min. to pull out that bar dropping the sub-frame and that includes opening a brew and taking a break.

Thinkin about doing the same here. I've been through several repair attempts to get this rattling/popping sound out (seems to be affected by temperature) and so far the service shop seems to be limiting themselves to the i-shaft and maybe something else in the steering system above the first U-joint.
I'm thinking it could be bushings, and want to use aftermarket components since the OEM parts seem to be such pooh. Any suggestions/advice?
