2005 Mitsubishi SUV has a clunky in rear sounds like a bush can me where I might start looking

Take a look at the control arm bushings. Their being worn will cause the knock when going over bumps.

Sounds more like its one of the many bonded rubber bushings on the rear suspension is giving up.
While someone is looking at that get them to check the rear hub/bearing.

Probably a failing cv axle. While they usually click they do sometimes make a more clunky sound.

suggest taking in for service could have something to due with the central locking system for the suv. hard to diagnoise a sound with out being able to experience it . could be a door latch, a control module, a relay never no untill you start looking at wiring diagrams. just a couple ideas good luck

sounds like you need new shockers(must be done in pairs)when off, check all rubber bushes/linkages.

There are multiple bushings in the rear spindles. I just had to change both driver and pass side rear lower control arm bushings in the girlfriends. They are a mitsu only part and go for about 50 each.

Hi, these symptoms can be caused by a few issue within the front area of this vehicles. i will list a few problem spots that i recommend inspecting. you will find the issue in one or all the areas listed below.

CHECK THESE FOLLOWING AREAS--

1. Check the tie rod ends.this is the part that is connected to the wheel rotors. if the ends of the tie rod are lose or worn, it will cause this sound you are hearing at this time.
2. I would also inspect the Steering gear as well. this is associated with the power steering pump.
3. The most common issue will be the CV Half-Shaft (Remanufactured) CCT. if the CV boot that covers the CV joint assembly, becomes tron and lose, it will expose the well oiled joint assembly. this will allow drying of this vital joint, therefore, reducing the fluid motion of the joint. This drying will produce the (CLUNK) that you are hearing when driving on the road or hitting bumps as well.

Remember to check all the above. you will find the issue in one or all of the above areas.

Please rate and god bless:)

the first thing i would check is the sway bar bushings they usualy go first. you have a bushing out somwhere. ive replace many struts because people have requested new struts and when we install them they come back and complain that the clunk is still there and all it needed was a bushing kit for $20
hope this helps

you can buy the bushing separatly and have them pressed in or you can buy the whole sway bar linkage with bushings and all
