Hello, my name is Steve and I am here to hopefully find some answers about my recent aquisition... a 1994 Grand Prix SE with the 3.1 and a 4T60E. First of all I was surprized at how much more power it has than my 92 Camaro with the same block and nearly 300 lbs less in curb weight! Amazing how much difference a better set of heads will make. Anyway, my question is about the rear suspension. The struts are shot and every rubber bushing is toast, but I am not sure that is the reason why the left rear tire rubs the top of the fender well over certain dips in the road. I found the tire ID tag on the underside of the trunk lid and the tires on the car are the correct size 225 60 16. I then measured the distance from the highest point on the fenderwell and the top edge of the rim. The drivers side is 5 11/16 inches and the passenger is 6 1/8. Nearly a half inch difference! I looked at the mono leaf type spring and did not notice any cracks or breaks. Is it possible the spring is shot or sagging just on the one side? I also inspected the strut to body mounting area and did not find any breaks there... any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!
