Hi all!
last week I walked into the garage and noticed the left front side of the car was hanging very low. I drove it quite a lot and hadn't noticed anything really strange in road holding or handling when I parked the car there... I jacked up the car and the wheel lifted at the same rate as I raised the car so the shock didn't push the wheel down... I think this means my shock is toast... but would the torsion bar also be toast... what do you guys think? If I replace the shock does the car need an alignment after that? I guess so but I'm not sure. And is there a way to check if the torsion bar is broken without unbolting the left front side of the suspension and taking the actual bar out? Hoping to find some answers.. thanks in advance Jacco |
