Alittle help with handling. - Diggers - 30-08-2012
right just want to say here: I was NOT driving hard/stupid.
i was driving at a normal pace, slight rain and going round a large roundabout when the backend steped out.
for some reason its started to feel 'wobbly' lately, tires are all fine, and as far as i can see everything is intact.
was it just having a moment? or is it a common problem I.E. rear mounts, Bearings, ARB??
thanks for any help

Rear beam mounts are the likely suspect!
RE: Alittle help with handling. - Niall - 30-08-2012
Check the shocks for leaking and check the beam mounts.

Mine's the same and I know my rear beam mounts aren't good... Likely suspect.

Best thing to do is just jack it up and take a look, give everthing a shake, kick and wobble, could be anything suspension related.

Time for solid mounts? might as well upgrade while im there?

You say it happened in the rain?

I've got dodgy P-bushes on mine and that seems to make the back end nervous when it's wet...

funny you should say that, my n/s p bush has split, maybe thats apart of the problem too

It'll pull all over shop in the wet with tired p-bushes.

Maybe new bushes is first thing to try

jack it up, then give it afew "gentle" taps with a regulation size tapping stick (persuasion maker) if it rattles of flex's then upgrade it

Solid beam mounts, i cant drive without them now
