I Have A Problem With The Right Frount Suspension

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS WRONG???

What do i need to look at on my '91 RS with out warning there has developed a bumping sound in the right frount suspension when i hit your normal non hazardous bumps in the road, that wasnt there before. it sounds almost like the rebound bumper is being hit buy the control arm (for lack of any better example) and during hard courning, turning sharply into a drive with a transition in grade my right frount tire is rubbing. i have the stock 16in wheels with stock tire size and this is somthing that just poped up in the last day or two . what do i need to be looking at? as far as i know the entire suspension is stock oem and was origionaly installed during assembly. thank you David

I would say get it in the air and take a look. Could be a number of things. Check for things out of the ordinary and make sure everything is "tight" You are just gonna have to get dirty and investigate.

i crawled around in the dirt today and every thing seems tight and every thing looks even to the eye as for all that is worth. all i could find is some rub marks on the plastic part of the inner fender at the top and at the rear most side .... i guess im going to have to take it to the shop monday and have them take a look at it

I'd check the bearings and ball joint...could have broke one.
