Ok, my old 74 had this but it was LOW and I never installed a bumpsteer kit.
however, my new 72 in pretty close to stock height, perhaps a tad lower. so anyway, when Im taking a corner on a bumpy road, the steering wheel moves back and forth in my hand. However, the car stays on track and doesn't wander (my previous understanding of bumpsteer). is this bumpsteer or normal?? I wasn't expecting it with the new car, but there it was. if not 'bumpsteer' what is it. thanks in advance everyone. -chris |

Sounds like your tires are out of balance if your steering wheel is shaking. If it was
bump steer your car can change direction suddenly when you hit a bump. |
