hey, just notice you're from toronto too... same here...

do you order parts from the states?


also, btw, are these compression rod front suspension component? or does the rear have compression rod as well? its not same as the endlink of sway bar, right?

recently i hear this popping noise whenever i come to a complete stop or whenever i start moving the car (i don't do hard launch). and when i drive, i can hear some clunking like you're dragging a metal piece or scrapping something.

i'm trying to think if its the (1) endlinks to sway, (2) compression rod (if they exist at the rear), or (3) axle needs to be re-torque or replaced. (4) or totally something else

The STRUT ROD, aka COMPRESSION ROD. If you go under everythingg35.com OEM parts listing, type in strut rod.

LINK- http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...14&model=G3 5

Also there are only strut rods in the front.
