Hello,
I'm looking for some guidance after an interesting experience with my '95 S-6. I was about 200 yards from home, travelling about 2 MPH as I gently rode over the last neighborhood speed bump. I hear a crunch and loud grinding noise from the vicinity of my right front wheel. I got out and found that the right front strut had come off of the torsion bar!
Obviously, I was very lucky this did not happen at any speed. I was able to find the nut, washer and bushing that secures the strut, via the lower control arm to the torsion bar. After getting it all back together, I discovered there is no longer a connection between the engine and the wheels. Absolutely nothing happens when I let out the clutch with the car in gear!
OK, so what happened? I assume something has disengaged in my front final drive mechanism. I have the Bently manual on CD but I have not yet found an obvious explanation of what is wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Bill
