Default Moog end link mystery: Solved

I got under my car today to check out my moog end links. To my surprise one of the bolts were completely loose. I used my digital torque wrench and torqued to exactly 35 pounds per manufacterer specs. Now the sound appears to be gone and my problem is fixed.

It's incredible because I had two separate mechanics look at the links and neither thought to check torque specs..

hopefully that resolved it. I'm about to change my end links also and was looking Mevoteck , acdelco, or beck/arnley .
