It's riding hard now - why ?
Posted: May 15th, 2010, 3:43 pm
So as you guys know , I picked up this car that sat for 5 years. When I drove it home it seemed a little rough on the strut/suspension side but Utah doesn't have the best roads to begin with.
Anyways , I drove it on a brand new silk smooth road today and it rode good over about 40 mph. as I was coasting/slowing it would seem like I was being jarred up and down. I don't think I have bent rims because i've had it up on jacks and in drive to check for that and they look straight as can be.
Could a bent CV be the culprit as well ? - I don't hear any clicking or odd noises from them.
worn bushings ? - it sat for 5 years subjected to utah weather which is like hell sometimes.
blown struts ? - The rear squeaks when I push down on the back.
Any help would be appreciated guys =)
