Is the heat shield fitted? (Can't imagine it wouldn't be but... )

Warranty!  That sounds like a one off to me.
Guess where the box and receipt were...  :'(

If it was from Allgerman, Id try anyway, Jason normally seems very helpful and would have done a warranty on my wishbones, except I 'modified' em instead.

Maybe I should jack it up, see if it is the idler, or if the mount or something else is boogered.

If only I had a jack  >:(
