i have a question regarding rear spring/shock.
after i park my car, i get out, and pull up on the rear wheel well, the body will come up about 2 inches, and stay up there, until i push it down, or sit back in the car. is this a case of faulty springs, or faulty shocks? both? should i stick a chopstick in the rear strut somehow and find out? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) thanks in advance |

Back on-topic--
Another possibility if you have aftermarket bushings on the rear trailing arms: The bushings are binding up, not letting the trailing arm swing up and down. Seen it on more than one car... --DD |
