99 4th gen TA 135K mile orginal bilstiens.
rear suspension bottoming out on small bumps.
a few months ago w/ a me an another 200LB passenger rear bottomed out, it was like bam.
car didn't do it much but did bam w/ just me I'm 215LBs that day besides spare tire the car was empty.
initially I thought shocks . tested shocks by pressing down multiple time on rear so see if it continued to bounce which it didn't.
so the new shocks I installed didn't fix this bottoming out bam
today on my trip w/ carryon bag 35LB + 50LB tool box in trunk each bridge w/ a dip she bammed.
I crawled under car the springs seam unbroken. doe's the 4th gens come w/ bump stops?
and if bump stops where worn out or flattened would this cause the bottoming out bam?
I feel this bam cruising over dips which applies presure to rear also the bam now on small bumps so it's getting progressively worst.hope it's safe to drive I'm 200 miles from home.
thanks for any advice
