Jim Grant's Tech Tips
90
Mercury Cougar
Q: The
problem I'm having with my '90 Mercury Couger is a thumping noise coming
from the front of the car while driving at low speed when driving over
bumps and small potholes. I've already replaced, the struts and mounts,
one set of bushings to the lower control arms and rack and pinion steering
and outer tie rod ends....Anne
A: Have
the sway bar links and bushings checked. These components are notorious
for creating a front-end noise that sounds just like a bad strut or tie
rod when driving over a rough road.
