Re: My car is crooked?
Great info, Keith. Thanks! I downloaded a copy for my 510 reference file. I'm sure my tires are average, at best. Certainly no performance model, but good lord those little bitty 13" tires are tough to find unless you want track-dedicated ones which just aren't practical for me. I'll adjust the...

Re: My car is crooked?
Agreed! We're having our driveway paved finally so I'm not able to take the car out for a legit rip to see how it feels under real driving conditions but on my short putt it seemed just fine. Let's hope it'll be fine for a while. Eventually, I'd like to replace all the bushings but I think that's a ...

Re: My car is crooked?
LOL!! I'm glad all is right with the world (or at least Canada!). My apologies to your wife, Keith, but on the bright side it's nice to finally have a use for all those Amazon boxes!
Thanks again for all the help, guys! I appreciate it!

Re: My car is crooked?
Today I took everything apart & checked it over. I couldn't find anything out of the ordinary so I don't know what's up. Until I can find what the actual culprit is, I cut the cup part off an old isolator leaving me with just a flat ring, and put it above the new isolator on the left side where ...

Re: My car is crooked?
This is the isolator I put on both sides. It looked exactly like the original one, only less mashed. https://i.postimg.cc/XvB820NR/Screenshot-2024-05-13-at-9-31-28-PM.png It might be in there weird. It didn't seem like it but I'm definitely going to check for both old isolator leavin's that may have...

Re: My car is crooked?
Ah, ok! That makes sense. Thanks! I really do want to have a legit understanding of how all of this works together. This about the only decent picture of my "crooked butt". Lol! You can kind of see the droop. This was last August, I think. https://i.postimg.cc/vHDcXzpb/362684856_1022370943...

Re: My car is crooked?
The springs were equal height standing on the ground before installation but I wonder if there IS a chunk of an old isolator up there! I guess because they came out with the old springs, I didn't think to fish around up there with my hand before putting the new ones in (not a fan of spiders! Lol!). ...

Re: My car is crooked?
I measured from where the rear sway bar is bolted onto the subframe to the floor and it's 5 1/2" on both sides. The center of the bottom shock bolt to the floor is about 1/16" higher on the right than the left. I'm not seeing anything that looks out of place or damaged under there but my p...

Re: My car is crooked?
Lol! I'm trying! 😆 I don't think it's an isolator because I have both that I pulled out in my parts pile but who's to say someone else didn't do that 100 years ago & it's stuck up there? I'll investigate.👀🔬 I really don't know about the cross-member mounts because I've never even looked at any o...
