so If i'm driving at highway speeds (55-75mph) I can sometimes feel the car track a little on the port-starboard side...its not something that could cause a wreck, just pretty annoying.

I dont hear any howling (road noise from tyres is all that can be heard) maybe the rubber thingies on the whatchamacallits are out. Suspension is something that I havent quite got the hang of yet, but i'm working on it. I wanna say ball joint? There's a little rubber boot that if F'd up might cause trouble?

I'm thinking abotu wheel bearings being last resort, as i destroy them all taking the hubs off....

what do you all think?

Mine seems to drift a little at speeds over 60ish too. I know that I need to replace my front wheel bearrings as they are pretty bad. Hoping the two are related. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)
