I did EXACTLY the same thing about a year and a half ago, smacked the back left into the gutter. Squeekd when moving and squeeked faster when moving faster. After alot of investigating i found the back left wheel was rotating funny. Turns out i bent the axle (or the flange to be more specific) picked up a new axle from the wreckers and cost me 40 bucks problem solved. And i learned my lesson about driving like a retard :P lucky i didnt do myself or someone else more damage.

Hey guys just an update:

I lifted the a*** of the car up and the wheel was all over the shop, so i ended up changing axles, and in the same time new springs, shockies, and discs/pads combo, and while i had the tools out i got a reco power steering pump coz the old one was a bit leaky :D

Cars going like sex again... it'll be a while yet till i do something silly in the wet lol

Cheers

Alex
