The clunk comes from the 'hook' end of the bracket slowly pulling out of the subframe hook receiver. I had a wicked clunk so I popped both brackets out and bent them back into their original shape. The bend is just like Chris showed in the picture - the bracket bends away from the subframe under the larger rear sway bars increased load.
What's got me worried is that on one side, not only did the bracket hook end bend, but the subframe reciever did too
. Try bending that back! Or worse, like Stazi's case, the whole damn subframe backing plate lets go and the whole bar falls off.
I'm going to get some backing plate reinforcements welded in pronto.
