A Few Issues
I currently have a few issues on my 2000 V6 5-speed Mustang.
1. I feel a vibration while driving. I just changed the tie rods and ball joints and got an alignment. It feels like it's coming from the rear. My guess was the bearings are going as I have a leak in my rear driver's side axle seal. The Upper control arms are tightened and the bushings are good.
2. It feels like my rear end wants to come around every time I get on the gas. It doesn't matter if it's at slow acceleration or fast speeds. Would that mean the rear sway bar bushings are bad?
3. When I turn my steering wheel, it has a little play and squeaks a little. It happens when its on and off. Any ideas?
4. I am currently trying to change the seals on my rear axle and I can't get the pinion shaft lock bolt off. I was told it was 8mm but even the 5/16th fits. However, neither will loosen the bolt. How much torque do I have to put on it and what size wrench/socket is it?
