Rattle Under Braking and over Bumps?
Heyo wanted to see if any of the fellow racers have experienced something similar.
It seems I have a rattle comming from the frequently from the passenger side and occasionally from the drivers side, it occurs when going over sharp bumps or while under heavy braking.
CRX Mil. heard it at an auto-x in South Jersey.
It almost sounds like the brake shield hitting the a-arms or if something like the cross bracings bolts accross the tranny tunnel were loose and the braces were jumping up and down on the bolts.
Any ideas?

That narrows it down 
Guess i'll need to wait a few weeks when I install new brakes/rotors and the KW Suspension to properly diagnose it.
Still waiting on KWEUR btw.... PM me if you've mailed your money order.

Check them in that order....I have had to replace the end links and the bushings due to clunks. I have had to rebuild a shock, and am waiting for motor mounts. When you do the install check the bushings and ball joints to see if they are OK.
I really would like the answer before I send you the MO....I don't really want to send 2
I also had a 2 pc rotor that came loose and rattled under braking....

I had a scraping sound from the passenger front that we were never able to track down. The most likely culprit,w e thought, was the brake shiled as that corenr suffered a lot more than the others between getting banged during wheel changes and having a good number of cones wedged up in there. We could never find evidence of movement or play in any other components.
I recall that Tim Pryor had a distinct clunking noise under heavy braking that he traced to his aftermarket exhaust. If you search for posts from tpryor, you may be able to find something.
