I still can't figure out my steering wheel vibration. Picked up some new control arms with meyle ball joints and new tie rods. Anyone have a how-to on the tie rods? I have the tie rod puller but haven't looked yet a how to do it... Control arms are very straight forward though. __________________ -Jeff | | | 12-04-2008, 06:19 PM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Wisconsin Posts: 1,895 | I don't know much about steering, but it might help to know what you have done so far and under what conditions you get the vibration. __________________ ... ʎɐqǝ uo pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ɐ ʎnq ı ǝɯıʇ ʇsɐן ǝɥʇ sı sıɥʇ | | | 12-04-2008, 07:12 PM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: SoCal Posts: 305 | I had my brother an ASC certified mechanic help with my tie rod ends. If your unfamiliar I suggest you take it to a shop, beside you'll need an alignment right away. __________________ | | | 12-05-2008, 02:55 AM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Raleigh/Charlotte, NC Posts: 1,233 | I plan on doing an alignment anyways. I have a vibration at highway speeds, steering wheel goes from side to side just enough to annoy me. I have done in this order: New tires, balanced twice. bilstein struts and shocks new pads & rotors all around. alignment __________________ -Jeff | | | 12-05-2008, 03:26 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Wisconsin Posts: 1,895 | __________________ ... ʎɐqǝ uo pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ɐ ʎnq ı ǝɯıʇ ʇsɐן ǝɥʇ sı sıɥʇ | | | 12-05-2008, 07:05 PM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Raleigh/Charlotte, NC Posts: 1,233 | Quote: Originally Posted by b.u.ti-ful | ?? thats not tie rods....I can easily do the control arms. __________________ -Jeff | | | 12-05-2008, 07:17 PM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Wisconsin Posts: 1,895 | __________________ ... ʎɐqǝ uo pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ɐ ʎnq ı ǝɯıʇ ʇsɐן ǝɥʇ sı sıɥʇ | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
