how 'bout that mr2


wanting to get that racket out of the front right, it makes all kinds of noise when i hit bumps in the road

found the tvis valve, working on getting that shipped here

eventually need to get some sway bars, it rolls like a bitch since the new suspension

if i can think of anything else i'll list it

I can do the rest, but be damned if I can figure out where the right front racket is coming from.

changing out the suspension on the front right didn't do anything for that, it sounds exactly the way it did before. i dunno wtf it would be unless its not the suspension and something else is loose around there

For me the racket was coming from the steering shaft. It had u joints on boths ends, but the real issue was from where it telescoped. It became loose over time so I had someone weld it down because I never adjusted it anyhow. I had a mk1 though....

Did you buy new strut mounts? They get loose over time too.

bushings?

Could very well be the strut mount bearings. I can't find any loose bushings though. And BTW, the only way you can really check is with a pry bar. And I didn't feel any. Might have to take another GOOD look though.

hey Dan, you still got that 350 block you want to get off your hands? I need something to mess around with and after working this summer I should have some money to sink into it.
