Well sure enough this random "clunk" noise I had going into first and second has been discovered.
One making the noise:

Drivers side:


I was told that you can't just buy the bushings from the dealership. You have to buy an entire new lower control arm.
So.. I just got done ordering a set of Prothane bushings from MPX.

Noticed it today after church. I did a WOT run 1st and second and heard that pop noise again, but it was a bit louder....

woo woo!

Got it out without damaging the threads. Got a thread out kit from Autozone. Drilled a nice hole in the middle and put the thread out thing on the drill. IT came out! I also got a bolt over at Ace Hardware. Same grade except it doesn't have threads through out the entire thing. should work for now. Will order the upgraded ones from Modern or find some grade 12.9's somewhere else. They just have 10.9's at Ace hardware.

Yup. I love em. Good idea is to get upgraded bolts too for the pass. side anyways. No problems with the tranny mount. The stock bolt is HUGE.
