I took the white one out for a drive today. Besides needing shocks and sway bars installed, it rides ok but I notice that when I hit bumps, the steering feels a little loose and sloppy. What would cause that? Does it need ball joints? Tie rods? I want this thing to ride like my old yellow one. It was very solid on the road.

Oh, it has little skinny tires on it too. I think they are 165R15
