240 GLT Questions 200 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be Mat Norris on  Thu Aug 5 19:58 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I have a couple of problems come up when doing the last service and any pointers would be welcome...



1) Front Left Suspension Clonk At Low or High Speeds When Steering to the Right. When I steer back to the Left it Clonks Back! I have searched on here already and checked all Balljoints, Cartridge Caps, Bushes, Bearings but can't find the offending part. I guess I am into the realms of replace and see - but if someone could give me the most likley offender given the condition it clonks in I would be greatful.


2)Axle Rotation When Hand Brake Applied. Wjhen the hand brake is applied it locks the wheels, but on a hill I roll back as the axle rotates a few degrees - is this normal or do I have a broken/worn bit of rear suspension/axle location?


Thanks for all your help
