Suspension stiffness?


91LuminaEuro

Recommended Posts

On the way home from work last night,the ride in the lumina was very strange. It felt very roiugh (more than usual) and it felt like the passenger rear tire was bouncing alot. Once I got home i realized the pass rear suspension isn't moving AT ALL. So what i was feeling was indeed a ton of tire bounce.

 

I haven't investigated at all into this, but the struts are relatively new. Any ideas what may be up? I'm gonna look at it tomorrow morning at the shop.

If the pass rear wasnt moving at all, seems like somehow that strut seized up on you. Atleast that what I would think.. How new are they? Also what was the temperature? Sometimes when its very cold the fluid gets pretty thick.

Its been in the freezing temperatures all week. I think the strut is seized, since i attempted several times throughout today to bounce the suspension and it wouldn't budge. (if it was due to temp i would have assumed at mid day when it was the warmest i would have gotten something)

 

The struts are less than two years old. I had them all replaced not long before i bought my monte carlo.
