I’ve been doing a bit of freeway driving lately and I have a weird steering wheel shimmy, noticeable between 60-80 mph. The strange thing is it dissipates after about 5 seconds, the returns about 5 seconds later and continues like that. There is no accompanying wheel vibration or shaking, just the steering wheel. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
73, 1.7, all stock, slightly lowered by previous owner. |

Doesn't sound exactly like bump steer. But still worth checking out the rack alignment after some of the other items.
