Well, finally got around to checking the strut bolts and all were good and tight. Replaced the drop links and it had no change in the noise. So, I'm now suspecting its the struts themselves. It's hard to believe they would be shot at 40k miles, but who knows.

Any other ideas, short of replacing the entire suspension? To date I have replaced the rear lower control arms, rear track arms and drop links. If I seriously have to put a lot more money into the suspension to quiet it, the line to trade the thing in is growing closer.
