    In Shackles...

    UPDATE: The bushings fit the car as expected. the shackles' stud diameter is a little to big for the bushing, but, the spring eyelet and the upper hanger are all cruddy. I'm going to sand blast the upper hangers and clean out the eyelets with my dremel tool.

    In Shackles...

    As our cars get older they get rusty if they are exposed to water and so on and so forth. Bottom line is that I tried to replace my leaf spring shackle bushings and get the ride a little better but when I got to wrenching on the nuts, they were almost off and they busted on the stud, and...

    Looks like my upper control arm took a crap.

    Mega Parts has theirs on back order and the price is out the wazoo! $375 a pair (that's US) but it includes bushings and ball joints.:banghead:

    Looks like my upper control arm took a crap.

    My control arms are probably just about done too, I'm very interested in these new ones from Badart.

    Wheel Noises

    No, I've yet to pic that car up, I've agreed with the owner it would be really dumb to take it out on salty roads. It's even worse because the roads are crusted and the car in front will throw up a fine powder.

    Wheel Noises

    :wack: I put a K&N air filter and E3s on this one. I got .08 more MPG for a $70 investment. But I won't say I don't have a lead foot. Let's see this one had the clock go bad, replaced and went bad again (dealership wants to keep replacing clocks for $$) it's bad wiring, it has an itermittant...

    Wheel Noises

    I lifted the car up and I got squat, the wheels didn't do anything abnormal. I did the shake test transversly and longitudinally, solid as a rock.

    Wheel Noises

    Here's another thing, I get wheelspin if I punch the gas, and let off, and get back in (on dry roads). It never has done that before. It has also felt like it's been going sideways off a standing-start, like the front end slides to the left. I think it is out of alignment for one. Oh, my mom...

    Wheel Noises

    You'll frown, It's Korean: '02 Hyundai Elantra GLS 2.0L with 4-Speed Auto. The noise is from the front wheels only. My mom drives this car more than I do and I'd hate for her to get hurt. I actually tried that and the results were less than satisfactory. I found nothing weird going...

    Wheel Noises

    Let's say you drive around and you hear some noises coming from the front wheels. It sounds like a humming with a steady beat. Also it is accompanied by the steering wheel vibrating and the car pulling to the left, at about 55 mph. I listened and it sounded like a metallic scraping sound...
