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!!!

Opening the nuts that hold the ball joints was areal disaster (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

With the right tool an an impact wrench a 1/2 hour of work....
nothing happened.

Weapons of choice:

Where did you get the tool for removing the ball joint nut? I think this is the first time I have seen the "special" tool, other than in my Haynes manual. I remember the one Dave Hunt made up from pipe fittings.

I used an adjustable pipe wrench to remove them on my car. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)

i bought it from guy that is remanufacturing several parts, like tools, suspension bearings, caster shims, etc.
I bought it before i saw the idea with the pipe fittings, on the other side 20 Euro are not to much for this rare tool

Also on german ebay those tools appear from time to time.

Unfortunately in my case the tool doesn´t help anything to remove the nuts. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif)

For torquing down the new nuts it was very helpfull.
