i just bought a 99 altima gxe with 57k miles. i get a scuffing noise from the back of the car when going over large bumps/dips such as drive ways, speed bumps or cattle guards. its' quiet during normal driving. i see no irregular tire wear or scuff marks anyplace. the car suffered a fender-bender on the right rear, but i was told it was sheet metal only.

any ideas?

thanks, Dan[FONT=arial]
