Had a 4 wheel alignment done last fri, personally i don't think they looked everything over, called and told me it was ready 30 min after i dropped it off and they were very busy? I didn't get before and after readings..My bad.
I have had this car about a month and know it's background. He drove it hard suspension wise. Said he replaced the struts a year or so ago? How do i test this? I think the car should ride smoother. It does have a strut bar installed but from what i have read that shouldn't have any effect on a pot hole or will it?
What prompted me to write this is i still hear a thud or clud like sound when the suspension is working, i suspect lower ball joints? I would think the alignment shop would have detected this? Also how do i check the struts, no leakage that i can see.. I have replaced front drivers side axle and drivers side rear wheel bearing assy. Don't mind doing the work i just don't want to replace things that don't need replaced. Thanks for any suggestions or opinions.
