A rattle in the rear on the Protege after new strut mounts and sway bars were put in might be due to the fact that the bolts are not tight enough. Bolts that are not tight enough will allow the ball joint to hop. This is very dangerous.

Wow - where to start!!?? So many possibilities. Just describing it as "rattles" is SO non-specific it could be anything.Loose items in the passenger compartment. Poorly stowed jacking equipment or tools. Spare tire isn't cranked up and tightly stowed against the body. Broken or worn out struts or shock absorbers. Broken engine mounts. Etc. If you EVER have a question about the safety of a vehicle take it to a shop or mechanic and remove all doubt.
