Default Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?

Drove through the rain which stopped the mystery clunking in my rear end, making me think it is a lubrication issue somewhere. I am going to put something on my shocks that won't damage the seal. Otherwise, raised the back end to stop it rubbing on highway bumps (ramps). Attempted to remove a shock to adjust the firmness and realized I've got no idea how it is attached to the wheel assembly. I removed the bolt and it still wouldn't move. Looked like a sleeve was slipped through the lower control arm and through the shock. But it was solidly in there, I didn't resort to a punch to move it until I could research further. I don't want to take apart the whole trunk lining to access the top of the shock. I don't have finesse for plastic fasteners. Added silicone lubricant to camber arm bushing that likes to make the squeaky bed sound. Bled the brakes which helped with the wheel pulling while slowing to a stop. Will bleed more as brakes are still unresponsive for first 25% of pedal depth.
