Default rear suspension noise

couldn't find anything on this in the posts, and yes, I did a search of All. 98 Accord LX, 4 door, 127K miles. Getting consistent rear suspension noise, seems on both sides of vehicle. Kind of a ert-ert sound over every little bump in the road. I suspect worn-out and needing to be replaced rear struts. There are a lot of bushings in the various components of the suspension system connections, but they look ok just eyeballing them. Anyone have any experience with this sort of noise, and can confirm this as a likely problem?

Possibly rear sway bar links that are either worn or broken. Just go under the car and give them a good tug if they're still intact.

Spray some silicone into the bushings, one-by-one, for example the anti-roll bar bushings. It won't last long, but it can help you figure out which bushing is making the noise.
