Finally got rid of the noise in rear suspension

after replacing one of the trailing arms, adding Helicoils, Goodparts hubs, new U-joints, bushings everywhere, springs, brakes and so on. It sounded like I put something together less than finger tight. Awful sound over bumps that has gotten progressively worse over the last year. Shocks were the originals (hubs broke the non budget) but felt fine. Turns out the shaft that comes out of the main body on one of them had about 1/8" of slop in and out. That was it. It was making me crazy.
