Re: What Did You Do To Your GC Today
Hiya,
Jared, IF you were able to re-instal the stabiliser, even if it's a bit crooked, I would think it would STILL stabilise. Let us know what the outcome is. I, for one, am curious. Oh gosh, I didn't see the answers you already got. Alignment-yup, that's the ticket I bet. (Dad-gummed Commodore 64...slower than a Corvette in 6" of snow!!!)

I did get the stabilizer in and it is crooked a bit, I doubt that I will ever get the mounting bracket straight unfortunately but I am now 99 percent sure that the popping noise I'm hearing when going over bumps and around some corners is the stabilizer because its in there a bit crooked

It does still work but because its a bit crooked it seems to me that its binding and I'm 99 percent sure that the stabilizer is the popping noise I'm hearing in the front when I go over bumps or make some turns. I doubt ill be able to straighten the mounting bracket out so I might start looking at mounting it on the track bar.

Check your front skid plate...I had a weird noise, and it was my steering contcting the skid plate when I turned the wheel...I cut a notch out of the skid plate and problem solved.

I'll have to crawl under and take a look at it when its not raining. I dont think thats what it is on mine though, it does it even going straight when I go over bumps. Actually it did it today when a friend of mine 6"8 350lbs got into it so I'm going to have to dig around a bit, its a loud popping/clunking sound and its driving me insane!
