Re: 2001 GC New Shocks - Rear Sway Bar Loose?
To update you helpful people....As it turns out, one of the new rear shocks
installed was defective. The Jeep dealer test drove it and put it on the lift
to confirm it. Pissed, I took it back to Midas and they had to order a new
one, but I'm glad to finally resolve it.
I can now remove the towels around my spare tire and CD changer!
Thanks for all the help. It's almost time to "play" in the Michigan snow!
