tibbs.james 1 Report post Posted August 18, 2007 Jack up the back of the car and put it safely on some stands, then i would suggest getting a torch and having a real good look around all the suspension components to look for anythin thats been rubbing or scuffing and that should let you know whats not working properly. Checking everything over is aways a good start when sonething has gone wrong. Good luck anyway dude Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
