not sure. I'm getting groaning from the rear end but it's only when I turn slowly

F-bodies are notorious for having shitty rear ends. I'd start with that

Are your rear tires rubbing on the frame rails or inner wheel well sheeting? Mine has done that before if I hit my driveway wrong. Look for shiny spots.

Its not that, my tires do rub in certain situations and i know that sound. its rub the tires since i bought it, this is a new development and sounds like something grinding or failing in the suspension only when i go up angles uphill. anyone else got an idea?

Probably the lca rubber bushings if you have the orignals. The rubber seperates and groans. Use moog replacements. They are better than oem.

Completely stock in the rear suspension, SFC's are the only suspension mods on the car.

I have new LCA's with relocation brackets going in next week, think that will solve the problem?

Hello
Like mentioned above it sounds like it is your rear LCA's bushings that are shot (the rubber will break down and the hardware will flex all around) or the hardware itself could need replaced as well. I am sure once you install the new suspension parts and they are properly maintained with grease you will not have any issues. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
Thanks
Brad

Default Also require help

Guys I am running a 94 LT1 (71,000 miles) and have the same squeal from the rear when taking a tight corner although right is worse than left at present.
Gear oil and additive changed which has not helps and I have checked the roundels (rear discs and can not see that these have touched the callipers.
Would it still be the C clips or is there anything else I can try.

Thanks Maria
