Is this bad boy the cause of my rattle?

Video of rattle (I'm not sure if it's easy to make out here) https://i.imgur.com/DyzUZhU.mp4

What you're looking at is a ball joint, not a bushing. That split is in the boot which keeps grease in and dust out. It is definitely NOT the source of your "rattle". But it should be changed soon.

The video? Yeah.... I can't hear it..... and I've said it before: on a video, everything sounds like a rod-knock.

Thanks guys! I'll continue the search and add control arms to my ever growing list haha :dance:

Hopefully it is just a loose honeycomb because I'll be replacing my cats soon
