Clunk/knock from the rear, can I see subframe cracks/tears easily?

So, I starting hearing a knocking sound from the rear of the car yesterday evening. It was about 10pm, so tough to see things. I took the right rear off (where I heard the sound) and did a quick visual inspection.



Everything seems intact. Though I could not get a good look at the subframe. I used a rubber mallet and tapped on the trailing arm, control arms, swaybar and all sounded solid.



My first thoughts are RTAB (mechanic told me they would need replacing soon) or dreaded subframe. Can an RTAB quickly tear away?



Would I be able to see damage to the subframe area without actually removing any parts of the rear suspension?
