Something binding
 
Hi, when my rear wishbones are fully compressed something is binding and I can't seem to find what it is
I first thought, well I'm never gonna get in this position anyway so why bother. But actually putting the car into a high grip corner compresses the rear wishbones/shock so much it binds and gently pushes the car back up

Easiest way to try is press your car down (as to bottom out) and gently push it forward....and mine try to push itself back up

Shocks all ok, driveshafts all ok, not touching rear shock tower either

Tried lengthening/shortening caber links....still does it

Any suggestions please guys?

Is the dog bone bottoming out in the drive cup? Or in the drive cup slot

Check hinge pins, hinge pin plastic holders and the aluminium hangers them self. If you have had a big crash it may have bent one ever so slightly

It looks like, at full compression, the drive shaft is fully in the drive cup and hinders movement.
I've tried 2 other X-rays at a club and they seem fine, I've checked the manual and all settings appear fine
I know in the manual it says to use outer wishbone hole with outer hub hole bug I'm gonna try outer wishbone with inner hub to make a gap between driveshaft and drive cup to see if that helps

This does the same on both sides

Do you have the external O ring fitted to the shock shaft that stops the up travel going to far and are your shock ends set as per manual

Hi
Check the plastic inserts of the inner hinge pin holders, I've seen them worn out, it gives you play on the hinge pin you don't want.:cry:
