Suspension

Asked by Rollinheavy65 May 27, 2018 at 12:47 PM about the 1988 Mazda RX-7 GXL

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I was driving my car from Ohio to michigan yesterday, and
everytime I hit a bump the passenger rear side wanted to go right
while I was going straight. It was very abrupt and not subtle. I have
a feeling it may be a shock mount maybe, its hard to see anything
visibly wrong. If you know or have had this problem before. Help a
guy out. Thanks

Could also be a bad tie rod end - and when that goes you'll lose all steering, so make getting this looked at a high-priority.

I already planed on it, it was sketchy some bumps.i planned on buying a whole car polyurethane mount/bushing kit. And coilovers for the whole car. I also noticed both rear tires have negitive camber. So I did think possibly shock/struts. And the shock mounts looked pretty rough
