Need help !

When I take a sharp or hard left in my 91' RS I hear a grinding or scraping sound. It's only when I turn left, and I hear it towards the passenger side, I'm thinking maybe some broken steering parts... Not sure, any help is appreciated

Re: Need help !

Do you see any evidence under the front end of where anything is rubbing or where heat is being produced (that shouldn't be)?

I'll definitely be checking after work. I was just looking at some other threads and I hope it's not the a arm bushing, but if it's not raining I'll check when I'm off.

Sounds like the right front wheel is rubbing the fender well at the rear of the wheel opening, right at the bottom, kind of right in front of the lower pass door hinge. Pretty typical really.

Look at that spot REAL CLOSE. Right where the plastic inner liner meets the fender, right at the bottom, right immediately at the ground fx.
