a few odd problems i'm at a loss for ideas on these

1st one:

my trans shifts late shift not all the time but for a few days to a week all the are late

shift points:

1st to 2nd: should be at 15 mph, mine 25-35mph 2nd to 3rd should be 25-30 mph, mine 45 to 55 mph 3rd to OD should be 45 mph, mine 55 to 65 mph



2nd problem:

rear axle geometry is off its toed in 10-15 degrees on both sides and the camber is about 10 degrees inward (positive camber) i thought at first the car had I.R.S. but upon inspection its a solid rear axle there are no suspicous welds or frame creases signafying it was it damaged by some type of an impact and the axle is perfectly aligned.


3rd. preoblem:

some times when going into a left turn because of the light suspension and the excessive body roll as a result of, there is a nice kind of "crunch" that stems from the front left suspension it only does this when turning left though never right, i know there is a bind some where when its makes said sound because, it resonates thought the car as in i can feel it bind some where and its profound you can feel it like some one just hit you in the head with a bag of nickles

Jack up the radiator cap and slide a new car under it and you should be ok.

ROFL. When I was 17 and had just gotten my first car ('75 Vega), my landlord would tell me that every day!
