Well, My car was finally delivered today and showed up very much as expected. Its hard when you depend on someone else to do the PPI for you and dont actually see the car in person 'till it arrives on your doorstep.
Its very nice to know that there are still good honest people out there who represent things as they really are! THANKS STEVE! Now... In driving it around for the few minutes I have (its not registered yet) and then crawing all over the car, I noticed that the shocks/springs are really noisy and creaky. Is this just the fact that it hasn't been driven for a long while and the whole thing probably needs lubricated, or is this a sign that I need new shocks? I'll be doing several things to it over the next weekend or two so I'll post pictures... Any news on blogs being re-instated.. Seems like that would be the right place to do it. Thanks!! Doug |

Its a rear suspension thing... And it does sound like the bushing problem as desribed.
i had a look at the shocks and they aren't leaking that I can tell, and its not at all "Bouncy"... Nice and solid as I would expect. I'll just add greasing the bushings to the list of things to do... As for pics.. I'll get them soon. The poor girl just rolled off the truck from the D.C. area and hasn't had a chance to take a bath.. Give a girl her modesty.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) |
