Hi Guys, long time car nut but first time corvette owner. My 80 is in decent shape, but i have a grinding / popping noise in the rear at low speed. Sounds like Left wheel area. Rear wheel bearings look new, and all u joints are new or good shape. trailing arms look referbished as well as much of the rear suspension.
i checked the park brake components ( hoping for a loose spring or something simple) and all are intact. At this point I am leaning towards the wheel bearing. perhaps the PO or the guys that installed it didn't do it correctly. More than i want to tackle right now- Looking for a shop with corvette experience in the Niagara Falls area to assess, repair. any suggestions?

Thanks, Black 03 Z06, I have a friend in the area who has dealt with Dave and also had good feedback. Its 1.5 hrs away though (3 h round trip) and i am doubtful its a quick job so 2 trips.
looking for someone local to Niagara region...
