Check the inner end of each of the rear diagonal arms. They terminate
in rubber bushings on either side of the nose of the tranny. Make
sure both bushings are actually there and intact.
If the car has been lowered, then the rubber bump stops are probably
just gone, and this is just part of what you get.
