Need some help guys. The Talon has been making a lot of strange noises in the rear suspension. It's a very loud tap or knocking sound and it only happens when I'm turning or there's a sideways force on the car. Today I took it out and did some hard swerving with it. Everytime I changed direction with the car, it "knocked" in the rear. It almost feels like the whole rear end of the chassis is sliding around or something. This might be relevant also. When I hit a bump in the road or a pot hole, the rear end hops to the right. I was thinking maybe there's something wrong with my sway bar. Anyone have this problem and maybe a fix or an idea where to start looking to fix it? Thanks.
 
since it is an all wheel drive car, check your axle knuckles on the rear end, you should be able to move the axle slightly with your hand, but if it is bad, it will move a bunch, maybe even pop.............hotwheels of turborides
 
Thanks for the starting point. I'll take a look at it later on today. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
