Well, it looks like Christine wants to be a gasser. My son drove to school yesterday and we have a weird hill that pretty much makes the suspension run it's complete travel. It looks like when he hit the hill, the suspension extended all the way and did not return to where it should. Now the right side is hung in the high position.
I looked at it briefly this morning and don't see anything out of place. I can pick the front end up slightly and drop it and when it drops, it hits something solid, still high in the air. Putting weight on the front end lets the left side move up and down, but the right side will not budge.
Anyone seen or heard of anything like this? I guess I'll be looking at it this weekend.
We got a good look at Christine today. The upper control arm bushing was almost completely gone, causing the control arm to move towards the engine and the pinch bolt got hung up on the frame. New bushing made everything right with the world today. Thanks Paul for the suggestion of the too long pinch bolt. It led me in the right direction.
