I have a 1999 with 170 miles and about 2 months back started hearing occasional noises from the front driver's side - at lower speeds but moreso to be heard when making a left hand turn. Before leaving for a road trip I jacked both sides up and checked the wheels and half shafts and all else and all seemed to be good. I'm now wondering if the subframe bushings are shot and the subframe shifts enough every so often to make the noise. All the suspension components except for a sway bar link are original - the rear suspension is clearly shot. this car has been on some fairly rough dirt roads maybe 20 or 30 times, the wheel bearings are original and have held up.
Right now looking to replace it - but it continues to run exceptionally well.
