well if its never been changed there should be no reason for it to be adjusted.

its easy though. loosen the fastening bolts to the sway bar and leave it disconnected. also any bushings and adjustments. back the car up on ramps * DO NOT just simply lower them on the ramps/platform as it will not let the tires move as they should and settle in to place where they should be. then you tighten all the bolts and nuts while the car is on the ramps. get yourself a beer its pretty tight and you will be on your back the whole time.

It seems like it happens more noticeably specifically when the spring/strut compresses and decompresses.

Any other ideas?

Well when the springs compress, the swaybar also slides in its bushings. So like someone else already mentioned, the bushings might need to be lubed.

It mostly resembles the sound of metal scraping another metal. I was wondering if theres anything that can rub against my 17x9 +45 rpf1's on the inside without me knowing?
