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,

Doesn't the strut shaft end have a spot for an Allen wrench?

Just went out and looked, OOPS, mine don't. Nevermind. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
