LSG 15 Report post Posted August 18, 2012 Matt, look at the strut rod bushings- my friends car, ( 69 428cj ) had the same issue which was cured after replacing the strut rod bushings. LSG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boogerschnot 12 Report post Posted August 21, 2012 Jack up the front end and see if you can move the wheel in a front and back motion. Also look to see if your lower control arm is rubbing metal to metal or is unevenly spaced as it sits in the mount. There should be some rubber on each side of the LCA and your strut rod bushing shouldnt be all pancaked and squished out horribly around the mount.
