Pulling, jumping feels bad
Putting the RennTech lowering on has caused a lot of problems. The garage
are concerned about my car pulling to the right on acceleration and pulling
to the left when deceleration , and it feels jiggly. They tell me the rear
bushes could be at fault. Has anybody had this experience.
