So checked a few items on the list:
1.Rear suspension brackets all good
2.Axle U-bolts another story:
-Right side outer U-bolt is bent outwards
-Also noted that the thread through nut of all four U-bolts was different with several not actually clearing the nut top at all!! (normal convention looks for at least 3 threads clear or past the nut top)
If I could work out how to paste pictures in the thread I would put them in here, any tips on that? Tried attaching but file size limited even as PDF. Also drag and drop or paste don't appear to work, using a Mac so no idea if that causes an issue.
So likely first step is replace all 4 U-Bolts, being the case:
1. Does anyone have guidance on if I can do this one U-Bolt at a time with car on floor or is there a certain procedure for replacing U-bolts?
2. Is there a torque setting for the U-bolt nuts?
Thanks
Stuart
