Hey everybody,
I have been really getting frustrated with my 67 fastback and before I go crazy, I thought Id post the situation and see what the experts think.
When I got her, the front and rear springs were shot and rubbing on corners. Replaced both (620's up front and 4 1/2 Mids rear) and put in new shocks all around. I also put in a front sway bar. I am running a 16" tire and wheel combo that I felt would be okay considering the replacement of the old, saggy parts. The problem is that it sounds like I am still rubbing when I either have a passenger or weight on the right side when I hit a dip going about 35. It sounds more like a metal on metal sound ( I thought it was the exhaust tip rubbing). Removed the tip and problem still exists. The weird part is that it only happens on the passenger side. I can put the weight directly behind me, hit the dip and it only rubs on the passenger side. What do you guys think? Suggestions?
