Yeah, remember it made that sound from the rear when I'd go over bumps and we couldn't figure out what it was? That's it. And it's not the paint chipping off..it's hard to explain David saw it. I'll try to take a picture of it.

its a brake line rubbing? it made a lot of noise for just a brake line. If i remember correctly, all the rear brake lines are supposed to be mounted to the top of the rear axle. At least mine are. Thats really strange.

I think it is I'm not sure it's really hard to see exactly what is rubbing since the wheel is kind of in the way lol. The other side clears it with room to spare because they somehow moved it over...and I just want them to move it back to the way it was but they're gone now. So I dunno what to do.

Go to the rear of your car and sit next to the back wheel and just look directly through it and that is where lol.

Yeah I think they're closing for good, and I don't think it's a job for anywhere like Meineke.

one of the lines may just need to be bent a little. I know mine didn't fit quite roght with the new axle and it's slightly changed geometry, so they bend easily.

I hope it's something easy like that, but you remember them saying how they somehow shifted the rear end over a bit? I'm 99.9% sure that is the cause of the problem.
