Odd noises, from front suspension Options

[lapuwali]

I can't pin this one down. My front suspension is making "popping" noises from time to time. Everything FEELS ok (steering, handling, etc), and I can't find anything loose. Could it be the strut inserts? Or the bushings? I have no idea what the inserts are (has KYBs on the back, no telling what's on the front), and the bushings look new-ish. I was told they had been replaced, but I don't know what with. Nothing snazzy like Mueller bearings, alas.

Does this over rough pavement, pretty much any time the suspension works. It could be something else up front, but there's nothing at all in the front trunk. Gas tank feels tight. It's been in and out a couple of times recently. Perhaps the pads aren't in the right place? The big rubber thingies are there...

Puzzled.

if you look at the diagram in the haynes manual there is a felt washer that goes over the end of the bar, behing the adjsuter cap...

PP sells them, but I was to impatient to wait...so the rubber plumbing wahers worked...

I got four on each side (they are thin), outside diameter is like 1-2 inches, inside is just around the bar...your size may vary.
The stock thing is about 1/8 inch thick.

I got them and had to make them the right size with scissors...
