Looking for recommendations for a good shop in the Springfield MO area. I have a 97 with torque steer and vibration issues that 2 shops have been unable to fix. Any help would be appreciated.
 
If you are willing to drive to Columbia I can recommend a shop
 
Yeah, it has stumped everyone so far. Get on the gas and it pulls left. Let off it drives straight.

Vibration at around 70 mph.
 
Sounds like rear suspension bushings are shot. But that's probably been looked at
 
lifted?
 
No lift.

There is a sound coming from the rear that they couldn't identify. Metallic clanging when you go over bumps. Would rear suspension bushings do this?

Could be drive shaft. Could be your sway bar if the bushings are worn. Loose bolts. Lots of options.
 
I would look for bad bushings, put the frame on jack stands and start seeing if you have any lateral movement in the axle.
