Re: Rebuilt suspension feels a little loosy goosy

Re: Rebuilt suspension feels a little loosy goosy

I went back to the shop for an explanation.

To paraphrase the answer:

"Your car needs rear toe shims and a front caster/camber kit and we don't do that here. So I charged you $50 to do an...

Re: Rebuilt suspension feels a little loosy goosy

2002 SC2 manual
