Hi folks, here is the diagnosis:

On the front of my 2001 GS430, I have a 19x9 24mm with a 245-35-19

If I turn the wheel at full lock to either direction and hit the gas to go forward everything is wonderful. But if I come to a stop, put it in reverse, and hit the gas with the wheel still at full lock, the tire opposite the direction of turn rubs the front fender liner badly (very front part of the fender liner).

What bushing isn't doing what it's supposed to?

Thanks

 

Most likely your Lower Control Arm #2. (caster arm, trailing arm)

this is what moves the wheels forward and backward (like how your arms move when doing the "cha-cha" LoL

 

Thanks for the reply.

While doing the brakes today, we discovered that the caster arm bushings are completely toast.

That's next on the list.

 

Damn I"m good

 

Yup, now I have to get to it.
