I tugged on them before and they felt tight, its time to get it off the ground and check into it.

I see the parts are very reasonable to purchase, Im goign to swap them out just on principal, although they feel snug there really is nothing else there that could be responsible for this noise.

Are they a PITA to replace, special tools?

Thank you for the response.
