Hi
So on smooth roads all is smooth and quiet. But with any rough roads it sounds like a rattlin bag of dumbells flying around in the trunk. So i looked at the suspension. Oh how the rust everywhere is aggresive...
She sat outside in a used car lot for a few Minnesota winters (95,000 mi)
Then outside Mom's garage for another
Then used for two years at college in Moist Portland Oregon (no garage :-(
Then another winter over grass un loved back in Minn, unloved... waiting with her shiny forrest green coat.
The arm from the A-frame edge rail area (laymans terms) just in front of the left rear tire to the lower anterior control arm support has rusted away. With the tire jacked up off the ground, I can put my fingers in the gap around where the said control arm bushing should be attached. I think if I try to spin the tires spinning the car around clockwise, the wheel might fold up under the car, not good.
I can't find this rusty armature on any google search?! I need to know what its called so I can buy another one b4 the wheel the whole wheel assembly falls off holy cripes. Here are a few photos, don't laugh Gloria might hear you :-/
