Can the rear trailing arms be removed with the engine in the car? Do the heat exchangers have to be removed (I hope not)?
I am thinking about pulling mine off to see how the bushings look (I have a clunk on accel) but I really, really don't want to drop the engine again to do it. |

A CV joint that is loose (partway unbolted) can make a single clunk when going from stopped to forward motion, or from forward to reverse (or rev to fwd).
