Skruntie what is the easiest way to check them?
Just lift the car or I need to remove the wheels?

check the rear shocks for signs of a leak
if the back end is going left then that is the one to check

had a escort years ago that went that way
you coulnt tell on the bounce test but as soon as the weight transfared onto that side in a corner, the bugger collaped and spun the car
once i got used to it though it was great fun on roundabouts

Keep your foot on the throttle,wind on opposite lock and grin from ear to ear.
