When drive 10-15 mph on a local street that's not newly paved I get feedback up the steering shaft. It sounds like something is not tight. The steering wheel end has little play and the car has new shocks.
Any thought on where I should be looking ? 11/13/17 Update: turned out to be the top nut on the new Bilsteins was not tight, |

What else needs to be disconnected before dropping the rack ? Since ball joints are a royal pain in the buttocks, especially if you don't have the correct tools for them, i find it easier to just drop the whole front end. A-arms and rack and wheels and shocks and all that. Like this: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-8-1148754291.jpg) |
