Dear Cobra Enthusiasts,

I have a 1997 Cobra with over a 150k miles on it. She runs great!! I recently had all shocks and struts replaced. Now, the car is making a popping sound from the underneath as if it is coming from the wheels. When I let out the clutch, I hear the sound and on occasion when I turn the wheel or go over a bump. The sound is definitely not coming from the motor. It sounds as if it is coming from the wheels. It mostly comes from the rear. I also have a little squeek but less noticeable than this popping sound.

Thoughts?

Warmly, Alan

Control arm in the back might be binding. 150K you're due for new bushings anyways.
