Default Bugeye backend rattling

My 2002 wrx bugeye wagon has developed a rattle at the back particularly when i am in the car myself you can hear it through the suspension.I have just done the drop links on the front could it be that or is it the struts are they on the way out.Its only done 64000 miles which bushes tend to go around this time will the track rod ends need doing.The steering wheel doesn't vibrate going up through the gears to over the ton.Any advice would be champion thanks.

Try jacking the car up to allow the suspension to its full travel. Spray some lithium grease up the rubber boot liberally ensuring the damper shaft is covered. Lower the car and see if that helps. Bob
