Had a wheel alignment done today, they said they tightened the rear suspension (mechanic had gone home by the time i got there so i couldnt ask exactly what) and the clunk is all gone. Car actually drives straight now and doesnt jump all over the road and steering is lighter too

hehe its amzing what correct geometry, suspension setup and tight bolts do!
I'm due to go over the monaro and re-tighten everything and give it a wheel align.. but that wont happen till its back on the road!
Cheers.

That's the way, do the expensive things first and the cheap things last.

I had already slid under the car and tryed tightning things and everything seemed tight, but without talking to the mechanic its hard to say what i missed. I wouldnt consider that the expensive way to go, just a $45 wheel alignment that it badly needed + $30 for them to go over the rear end and check things out, well worth it imo and it drives a hell of alot better now. Honestly its nice not to have to work on the car just this once, for the last 2 years i've been doing everything on it (learning everything as i go) so its a nice change to just hand the car over and get it back fixed!

I've already told him to be carefull when he removes the cam. If he loses it, he will have to buy a bigger one.
