Hi I have a 92 Toyota corolla. One problem which just recently started after putting in new front shocks and springs is that the car makes a rattling noise when going over bumps sounds like it's coming from driverside. The next thing is that when I hit curves or bends that go right it makes a scraping sound that comes from the driverside rear end
