When driving my '92 sport there seems to be a bounce coming from the right front wheel. I have fairly new (`1 year old) rs5000 shocks all around, front alignment about 2 month's ago, rotated tires at time of alignment. The problem was there before the alignment and I thought that it would be solved at that time-not so. Should I have the tires completely rebalanced?? Or do I have a spring that is possibly getting soft on me?? Any help would be appreciated??

Thanks..Jim
 






Did you just buy your 92 Sport? If so, and you aren't use to the bouncy traits, you'll just have to get used to it. The Sport models are more likely to have a bumpy ride because of its short wheel base.

The front also does not use springs, they use torsion bars, if you're rear springs are going out and you want new ones, you should pocket out the money and buy some from a 4 door out of a salvage yard.
 






Forgive my ignorance.......I guess you do have springs.......but I highly doubt that it is weak enough to cause trouble
