996 Rear Suspension issues
My 2004 996 C2 with 8.5 and 11 x19" Champion RG5's, is having issues with the rear suspension on the passenger side. When taking a right hand turn while accelerating at anything above a slow to moderate rate, the passenger rear tire is coming in contact with the fender liner and the strut spring. No issues with the drivers side or while taking left turns. It started out only doing it occationally, now it's pretty consistant. Other than slightly more rapid tire wear on the passenger side, it seems to be driving fine. No funny noises, etc.
I took the wheel off the other day to inspect things and gently tugged on the suspension bushings with a pry bar. Nothing seems (at least to me) loose, broken or out of place. The only suspect thing seemed to be a bit too much wiggle in the innermost toe arm bushing.
Any ideas or experiences with "typical" wear items or conditions that may cause this?
