Hi folks,

Just changed a broken push link on my 1995 E320 wagon. Just put everything back together, everything looks perfectly normal but how there's a horrific noise coming from the passenger side rear wheel (same axel as where I replaced the link)



Both axels turning:


The car was up on stands running with both wheels removed in Drive. Seems there's some brake binding on both sides (car was sitting before I bought it) but other than that everything seems normal - from my visual inspection at least.

Probably academic, but here's images of both sides of the suspension. Looks normal/the same on each side to me:

Passenger side rear


Driver side rear


Any thoughts? This "daily" isn't working out too well so far

Thanks!

Probably just some crusty things from sitting. Apply the parking brake LIGHTLY to see if it changes the noise, if yes its in the parking brake shoes.

Good luck!!!
