Rear lateral links clunk?
guys,
i have a 2015 EVO. with 20k on the motor and chassis. yesterday while i was driving i heard a clunk noise on the rear right side of my car. after jacking it up i notice the rear lateral link had play in it. The bolts were not loose at all i could grab the middle of the link and rotate it. i was wondering if that was normal? i did check the other side ( driver rear link ) and i was able to rotate that as well but not as easy. i did not find any other parts that were loose or had movement. Please let me know your thoughts and if i need to replace them what is a good aftermarket lateral link ?

well just an update for you guys. Took the car in to the dealership for a recall and i asked them too look at the rear lateral links. they said they are bad and will replace then under warranty since my car only have 23k on it
