windshield was replaced yesterday which isn't much of a kid but was needed badly. also I've been having an issue lately and an going to attempt to fix it today. seems like at low speeds and with the wheel turned it sounds like the dust cover behind one of my rotors is making contact with the rotor. kinda odd but I'm almost positive that's what I'm hearing. anyone ever have this issue? if so what did u do to fix it, did u bend it or just remove it all together?

I had that issue, what it ended up being was the cotter pin on the lower control arm balljoint, I had bent it too far out and when turning, it would touch the dust shield.

ur the man!!! looks like that may be my problem. one of the pins ends were bent down and the other was straight. looks like that may have been it upon closely inspecting the back of the dust sheild


do u remeber which way u bent them? the position I have them in now they look like it'll clear but I just wanna make sure the cotter pin can't come out.


rockstar FTMFW! thanks bro that absolutely was the problem and also the fix.

not a problem bro I figured it out. thanks again! it was exactly as u described, the back of the dust shield was gouged from the cotter pins making contact. bent them around the bottom of the castle nut and presto fixed lol

Yes sir, I think I fixed mine on hot asphalt while at the grocery store. I didn't even see the problem, I just felt around under there and voila, gone!

yea he is! I wouldn't have thought that the cotter pin was rubbing. I just assumed the dust plate needed to be bent away from the rotor alittle the after J's post I saw the scratches from the pins. this week will be replacing a bunch of clips from the molding and windshield cowl, accessory belt replaced, and getting a quote to finally have my spoiler and trim painted. gotta see how much they are gunna charge me so I can prepare and maybe set a date to drop them off for some CBP goodness

you guys are too kind. I just remember having this issue. Was weird because it would ONLY touch when making a right hand turn. I'm just glad it was something so simple, man.

This site has saved my azz each and every time, only right thing to do is share the wealth and pay forward.

Well, the guy showed up with his camera, so I'd say the only one that was surprised was you!

Caz...great shots...the BEST that I've seen of your car these days. If you were local, I'd love to shoot you

I was going to do "in the face" in white text because I thought it was funny...but I thought, meh, he doesn't know me and know that I'm kidding. LMAO.

Rainy weather is the BOMB for some dramatic shots. Do keep me posted, and don't worry, when Wendy's DOES let you go, BK and McD's ARE definitely hiring fry cooks.

I wouldn't have minded any joking threats so it's cool. I guess ur right since I don't have any rainy day shots of my baby. and I'm in the union brotha, I'm never laid off longer than a month or so, fastfood joints won't be getting any of my services lol unless they wanna rewire their locations haha

here's a question for u brotha... lastnight for the first time I started getting a squeaking from the back suspension area. thought it was prolly due to the massive rain storm lastnight but it's still doing it today and it's fucking annoying. could it be the tein coilovers or do u think I should lube my sway bar bushings since I did install a type-s bar?
