crunching sound on full lock right.

[Owen_m]

Hi guys,

Having an issue with my car (lowered on 70mmapex springs ). When I turn full lock right going forwards there's a nasty crunching on scraping sound like metal on metal. It doesn't do it any other way and doesn't do it in reverse.

I've been slowly changing all the components in the suspension, so far new dampers, top mounts (thought it might be the bearing) so far.... Any ideas?

Is it caused bybbeing low?

could be lower arm, however Id be looking closely at whether the wheel is scrubbing.

Sounds like metal on metal though :s developed a month or so after going low which is odd no?

Thanks for the speedy respone mate

I thought along them lines.... Just had one new OEM drive shaft can't get after market for mine aparrently.... Could me costly

ball joints then dude, worth a go.

Stripey sounded like it was tearing itself in half when it's CV and ball joints needed doing. Now they're done it only makes a s**t awful racket when I go over bumps, but sod it, those top mounts will live.
