Same thing happened to me in my 2.0
I fitted a lowering kit, and somehow the washers fell of, and my axle twisted too.
I agree with BUG. Its a problem in the union between axle and leafsprings.

Power steering failure
Hello, Im just finishing some bits and pieces from the capri and my power steering is loosing a lot of fluid. It is loosing from the seal of the steering colum. Has someone changed before this seal? If so, any special tools needed? or just the clip remover. I also found this seal kit on ebay, any ex...

If you see the LHD dial set you will notice the sp...
