#1: Rear Bouncy! Author: Razpulsedj, Location: Partying with the Info ShufflersPosted: Wed Oct 05, 2011 8:26 am ---- Not that long ago i changed my rear shocks from standard to some raceland ones since id just got my car lowered and it was scraping quite badly
So once they were fitted the car was fine but recently with only 3 people in it always scrapes when weight is put on the rear drivers side wheel
Also you can grab hold of the alloy and rock back and fourth with your hands and the car bounces really badly, so therefore with people in its really low
I dont know if i need stiffer shocks or what....
Thanks guys

#9: Re: Rear Bouncy! Author: Ste, Location: Hull -or- The World Of Info CodePosted: Wed Oct 05, 2011 9:56 am ---- I seem to recall yours was lowered using the click method too? Could of fubar'd something up with it been done the wrong way.. Hopefully not but it certainly wont be the first time I've heard of it..

#10: Re: Rear Bouncy! Author: coopskin, Location: Hull, East YorkshirePosted: Wed Oct 05, 2011 10:08 am ---- sounds like very very very stiff shocks to me!
#11: Re: Rear Bouncy! Author: DanPug206, Location: BirminghamPosted: Wed Oct 05, 2011 11:16 am ---- Could be your rear axle gone
#12: Re: Rear Bouncy! Author: Razpulsedj, Location: Partying with the Info ShufflersPosted: Wed Oct 05, 2011 5:43 pm ---- Ill upload a video tommorow with me moving the rear by rocking wheel, its so easy and bouncy
#13: Re: Rear Bouncy! Author: Razpulsedj, Location: Partying with the Info ShufflersPosted: Sat Oct 08, 2011 6:11 am ---- Yesterday i had 5 people in my car and it was always scraping so went down to 4 people and only the right rear was still scraping, even with just 1 person in back on left the right scrapes, its really bouncy
Any ideas?
#14: Re: Rear Bouncy! Author: creamy69, Location: dorsetPosted: Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:34 am ---- sounds to me like your rear axles f**ked, my old car sat lower on one side and the wheel bounced as well, thats what happens when u lower your car lol
#15: Re: Rear Bouncy! Author: Seabook, Posted: Sat Oct 08, 2011 10:43 am ---- with thicker bar there is no way you will scrap.
