very odd shock/spring question
I put new shocks all the way around thi 94 blazer. About a week ago truck seems less stable in turns and banging like hell over bumps.
Findings. Shocks walked to the left of the bushings. The banging is the shock cylinder in the shock perch. Looked at all of the spring and shackle buching and they seem to be nurmal wear. If the shocks walked left, it seems the axle is pulling right. Tought I would have noticed this in the snow and pulling me all over, but noticed nothing. Just one day, unstable and banging like hell. Any Ideas?

Re: very odd shock/spring question
I think I kight know the reason. With the snow roads are narrow so instead of blocking the street, I throw the right side uip on the bank. So axle stays, springs flex as the body moves left or "down hill". Its not like its normal driving tiltled to one side for 5-8 hours. I am 95% this is the casue. The fix is to reposition bushings and dont ride the bank and see if it comes back.
