Default loud suspension noise

has anyone ever encountered this yet?

almost everytime i go over a dip or a sharp hill that cuts off at the top, the rear right of my car has a loud creeking noise. it sounds like when you're trying to pop out a dent. well its a mixture of that and a loud pop. i jacked up my car took off the rear tire and looked around, i didn't see anything out of the ordinary. could it be the rear lower tie that's increasing the tenstion of the chassis or something with the shocks?

thanks

jack

I've got a beefed up rear lower tie and never had this problem. Can it be duplicated at will? If so, have a run to the dealer to check it out. CV joints?

dude i can relate! i have had this problem to, but its only every once and a while, do you drive your car in any weather like rain or anything, i think it only happens when the suspension is wet

You made sure the spare wasn't loose? Any other loose stuff in the trunk?

If its the suspension, I'd like to know the answer tool. Mine has all kind of problems since the collision repair work was done, including what you describe - also from the rear right.
