[76TA462]

Thanks a ton for the suggestions. I checked all the ideas except the package tray area (will save that for after a test ride it needed). Everything was good with some exceptions (and embarrassing since I do keep the ol’ TA in top form). The nylon lock nuts on the upper and lower shackle bolts on both sides needed some significant snugging up. The axle U-bolt nuts on the leaf spring plates were good but did allow for a bit more snugging. And the lower rubber bushings on the passenger side shock needed a good amount of nut turning to get them to sandwich properly. Tied up with things but suspect and hope this solves the problem after testing. Will report back later. Crazy, even though the car does not rack up the miles these days, it was surprising how these things creep up.
