Looking for some guidance here: couple of years ago I installed the Blind
Moose gas shock mod and almost immediately began to notice a rattling sound
coming from the driver's side rear suspension. Over time it has grown worse.
On smooth pavement--no problems. On rough pavement--particularly brick or
cobble stone roads it sounds as if the entire rear end of the car is ready to
fall out.
Over the weekend I removed everything except the diff in an effort to find the
cause of the rattle or banging. The swing arm bushing are relatively new and
tight. All nuts were tight on the shock assembly and the half shafts. Bolts
from the flange to the diff were tight. Everything is tight which leads me to
think I may have a fracture some where. I spent an hour yesterday looking for
signs of a fracture but had no luck.
Can anyone out there describe for me where to look. Does anyone have a photo
showing where they encountered a fracture that sounded like a rattle on rough
pavement? I just don't know what else to look for.
