Hi Slipry,
The only thing I didn't replace was the rubbers on the radius arms, as I couldn't find a replacement. However, they seem to be in good condition, so I don't think this is the problem.
I think I may have discovered the problem - the lower control arms I thought were the same for left and right side. But after checking the diagram closely, they are slightly different as they have a small 'v' shaped bracket welded on one side. According to the diagram, this bracket should be pointing towards the front of the car. It seems I have swapped them when I reassembled the suspension.
I also discovered when I removed the lower control arms, the bottom ball joint is slightly different between the left & right sides. Although the pin is the same, the base is a slightly different shape. Not sure if this is an issue, but I will order a new ball joint so they both match exactly.
So hopefully, when I reassemble it, the problem will go away. Here's hoping, will let you know the outcome.
Cheers,
Greg
