    car in a bind

    How do you tell if your car is in a bind when going through the turn. The car seems loose through the turns but the motor really boggs down from center off.

    Best way to tell if its binding is to put a jack under the rear of the (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)pit infront of the left rear tire and jack it up and see if it binds whilst you jack it up.

      Put the car up on stands and remove the springs from the coil overs, leave the shocks on the car. Then use floor jacks to move each wheel through it's travel. Use 2 jacks on the rear axle and raise and lower them independently and together.

      Most handling problems can be solved by adjusting the screw-ball. It can be difficult to fine tune at times. Explaining yourself loudly and striking it on top of the helmet with a dead blow hammer usually works well.
