Default FYI: rattling suspension cause

I came across this when researching information about variances in model years. Looks like its not just the rear nushings that cause us problems with noise. The caption below is listed as a very common issue.

Suspension noise: Popping, clunking, or rattling noises from the rear are often due to a loose retaining nut on the support. (1992-94)

The popping, clunking, or rattling could also be due to loose or worn endlinks.

Thanks for the heads up Hermosa.
Where exactly is the "retaining nut on support" on the rear of the car? What support are you refering to?
Thanks, i have that symtom and would like to check it out.
