Wheel rattle and suspension rattles

Could a wheel bearing make the front right suspension rattle when i hit a bump or pothole?.... ive had it checked and it was nothing like a tie rod or cv joint or anything visible underneath the car. i think it could be the strut... its stock but i dont know... its a 99 cavalier if that helps. help


thanks ... jeff

Yes a bad wheel bearing could cause a rattle. Experience it myslef...changed the bearins and the rattle was gone. But could be a shock too or a top plate.

not to jack but, if i changed the front mounts and bearings, would i have to get an alignment again?
