rattle noise
I own a 1995 LS400 and have a rattle noise that I cannot find. I have replaced upper control arms, sway bar links, struts, rack and pinion, lower ball joints, rear transmission mount, radius arms, brake caliper kits and all bushings possible. I have a new front end that continues to rattle when I drive over a bump.. I have spoken to Lexus to no avail. When I hit a bump I have a rattle coming from the front somewhere. PLEASE HELP!!

Don't think this TSB applies to you, because apparently it was fixed in 95 -- But you can look at it anyway

Sometimes rattles are hard to find, as you have found out. I would personally, instead of trial and error replacing parts. Go to a few mechanics, just pick them randomly.. Have them drive your car and tell you what they think it is. If they say it is something you have already changed, thank them and go to the next. Someone will know what it is..
You could always just start tearing the front end apart and then put it back together and the rattle would probably be gone
