Back in an 80 for less than a month and already posting up an advice thread... It's a beautiful start of a love hate
Picked up a 91 with 179k miles in West Phoenix. Mechanic owned. Checked out when I bought it. 1 week later noticed a pretty significant leak in the far front driver side when removing the grill guard. Thought it might be a lose hose but couldn't find the source. Checked fluid levels and everything looks good.
Fast forward to today. Driving down the freeway and start feeling a timed bump. Pull over, check things out, nothing seems to be loose, pop back on the freeway, it gets worse. Feels like the whole front end is waving back and fourth. Take it slow and make it home. What could cause that? Bad steering stabilizer? Loose knuckle? Hard for me to determine since I cant see while driving.
Think I traced the fluid leak to the base of the steering arm just above the driver side axle. Looks like something has been spewing down the spring onto the tire and being kicked back against the fender wall. Open to any suggestions before finding a shop to bring it to.
Thanks in advance!
