Hi guys quick question here for ya. I have 94 celica gt. I have a very slight to the point you can't notice at 60mph steering wheel wiggle back and forth. Then when I get on the interstate at 70-75 mph it is more noticeable but not horrible I could live with it I just would like it to be rock steady at 70mph on long trips.... Any things I should look for ? I have new polyurethane mounts in both wishbones so I am not sure what else to check. I can tell you this....
-I do have 17" wheels on close to 1" spacers for a couple of years now, camber has been adjusted so I don't burn off the inside edge of the tires like I originally did when I first added the spacers. Tires should be balanced correctly as I have 2 sets winter tires and summer that both do the same thing. -Are there any other rubber mounts that need to be checked that could cause this? -Any worn parts that could cause it? Any ideas??? Thanks.... Brandon |

Motor mounts could be bad.. Heard of bad cv joints giving shake.. and of course ball joints, tie rods, & wheel bearings could be shot with the 1" spacers u got on..
At first I was thinking wheels need balance or spacers but if other wheels do the same thing then it can't be.. I'm also assuming you took off the spacers when the other wheels are on. If not give that a try.. This post has been edited by blockustomz: May 13, 2014 - 10:35 PM --------------------  @floordauto |
