Hi everybody,
have a mysterious suspension problem. Sometimes on a bumpy road the car is shaking a bit side to side. Changed the tie rods to turbo style, mounted bump steer kit, adjusted the toe in to factory spec, every screw connection is fastened. what else can i do (check)? Any body know this problem or the remedy? I am sure it is not the bump steer problem!!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_flagge6.gif) |

Had the wandering thing also. Tie rod ends were shot, replaced with turbo tie rods, wandering reduced but not gone. Checked front end by jacking up one side at a time, and grabbing the wheel, shake back and forth, up and down and found out the ball joints were bad.
After new ball joints, things got much better, but still had some play which was from the wheel bearings not being tight enough. Tightened the bearings and now the car is nice and tight. Spoke |
