Default anyone w/ bad bearings that made clickity clank noises during bumps??

i'm trying to diagnose my rear noise problem, sounds is coming from wheel/hub area. Could be a suspension part, I donno. I'm wondering if this noise can come from bearings? (sounds like metal hitting metal)

I think i know what u are taking about i have the same problem with my 01 teg right now. I had my guy check it out and he said it was 1 of 2 things, i have an aftermarket camber kit by skunk 2 he said mine needed some tightening.Also he sad my axle was actually moving side to side sounding like metal hitting metal because of a spacer was either broke or missing. It sounds bad but it wasnt moving to the point that my wheels are gonna fall off. Deffinently get it checked out.

hey man if it's in your rear then it could possibly be the wheel bearings but they'd have to be really worn out. also another very common thing to go out on honda/acura rear ends is the trailing arm bushings and they can cause noise too. if you wanna check if ur bearings have play then just jack the rear of your car up and slightly wiggle the wheel from top to bottom and side to side as if you were trying to twist the wheel off. if you have any play at all the bearing is bad. if not then look towards the bushings.
