if you want a set of coilovers, there are a few going in our classifieds. our vendors have some very good deals on D2, Megan, and Ksport coilovers going on right now for under 900 shipped.

my car had a similar problem but it was one of the wheel bearings as my bushings were in good condition. i jacked up the rear, release the parking brake and checked to see if the wheels had any abnormal movements

I think my wheel bearings are on there way out also, how do you tell exactly??

Did they have odd front and back movements? Or side to side?

when i had the car in the air and the face of the wheel was toward me i grabbed the top of the wheel and shook it toward and away from me. but when i would drive the car it had a odd kinda grinding noise and on the freeway the car would rock back and forth at about 50mph.

my bearing was really shot as when i pulled the hub to have the bearing pressed out the ***** started falling out.
