[Mgs] rear end noise

[Barrie Robinson]

Folks at world,

As I have tube shocks at the rear this probably no help but I will 
submit it just in case.  I had the is knock/clunk/tap from the rear. 
I and my very mechanically minded friend went over the back - took 
out the rear set, battery cover and drove with head in hole  - his 
head !!!   Many times I checked all the nuts all over the place.  We 
could not find it and it went on for years all the time trying to 
find what it was - It was there from when I could remember.  Not a 
serious noise but annoying and intermittent.   After an extensive 
time I decided to bite the bullet and take it to my favourite 
shop.  They fixed it while I waited at a cost of $45.   The Monroe 
shock had, for some unfathomable reason, a sticky up thing at the top 
- almost like a locating spike - it was knocking on the 
chassis.  They ground it off and no more knocking/clunking/tapping
