T series wheel wobble
Car - Ae86
motor / part in question - t series drum rear end
problem - the rear seems to sway when cornering or swerving left to right. Almost like a datsun hicas sort of thing (I would imagine, I've never driven one)
occurs/started when (if applicable)-
personal situation (if applicable)-
This problem is actually in a mates 86, he has been struggling with it for quite a while. The problem has been isolated to the hub/wheel sort of area.
Basically all bushes have been replaced, new shocks, new t3 4 link, new bearings/seals in the diff, wheels changed (to check the wheel wasn't flexing) and even spare axles put in, still the problem is there.
When the car is jacked up the wheel can be wobbled, you can pull and push on the wheel and cause it to tow in and out by maybe 5mm. Not just tyre flex, you can actually see the rim moving.
We are out of ideas and matsuri is around the corner. Has anyone had this sort of problem before?
