pkaboo Member 38 Member For: 20y 10m 29d Posted 26/07/09 03:06 AM Posted 26/07/09 03:06 AM Hi guys,I did a bit of a search, but was able to come up with a huge amount of FG related stuff.I have an FG XR6T sedan and I am getting a really bad tramp from the rear when the car wheelspins.... It happens in both the wet and the dry and sounds like the diff is going to come through the rear seat. Even in 2nd gear when it wheelspins as hitting boost it does it. Sometimes are worse than others, and I can't seem to work out why?Ford are doing these ones and I'm starting to get very frustrated with it. Anyone got a fix, or have any ideas?ThanksKym

Replacing the control blade bushes helps with axle tramp significantly, you could also look at replacing the shocks to reduce tramp - your car is only fairly new though, so maybe the bushes for now
