hey guys as the titles says, im having the joys of having the death wobbles whenever im sitting on the freeway at anything over 95km/h
-Its been fitted with some sort of Pedders front spring/Shocker setup (unknown) but the lowest point is probably 80mm and thats from the K-frame/sway bar area -the rear has similar shocks and sits about 110mm from the ground, -Front tyres are showing signs of bad wear with the passenger front having wear on the outside edge, -Right front tyre is fairly good, The steering wheel doesn't seem to shake so its doesnt seem to be an alignment issue, it more feels like the whole car is vibrating at speeds, ive tried it in different gears (auto) and still does it regardless of rev's, it does seem to taper out sometimes which is abit unusual!! -Also i dont know if this is related but during slow/dry steering the front suspension makes sort of like a knocking/snapping noise sometimes but never when im driving?! guessing this will be some sort of worn out link issue -So far the plan of attack is that ive purchased a set of superlow springs for the front to hopefully bring it up to the same level as the rear, -Im getting new tyres fitted, (factory tickford 17 inch rims) -Im also dropping it off to my local mechanic for him to check gearbox mount/engine mounts/ and tail shaft etc, Any idea's on what it could be and if anyone else has been fortunate enough to have there other half be slightly aroused while on the freeway! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, Ohh and soon to have pictures up! |
