Hi-Speed Wobbling

[slider2828]

Hey Guys:

Anyone experience hi-speed wobbling? Anything under 70 the steering wheel does not wobble, but about 75, the steering wheel starts this wobbling thing. Any ideas? New Tires, mount and balanced, new tie rods and ends.... TC rod bushings are new too and I have megan coilovers dialed in. Is it possible it is the lower arm and lower arm balls joints? Thanks for everyone's help...

Alignment??



Good idea for your new tires anways.

loose lugnuts
spacers(?)
seizing brakes
loose bearing
loose axle nut
warped rotors
Could be a lot of things...

might need huge centric rings for the wheels

wheel balancing ? try it... it's the cheapest out of all things that can go wrong

Getting the tires rebalanced, b!tched at my friend cause he owns the shop hahaha... Um... I have spacers, all brakes and rotors and calipers were serviced by me. Got shaking and then lightly tapped on the brake, didn't affect the steering wheel at all. Spacers were recently torqued on same with tires, will check those. What bearing could be loose? you talking about wheel bearing testing? Axle not? hmmmm going to check lower arms and stuff... Thanks for the suggestion, but is it weird that this only happens at high speeds don't you think? If something was loose, it would shake at 45 even...

did you get an alignment after installing all that stuff?

[slider2828]

Nope.... but it shouldn't make a difference.

[aznpoopy]

yes it does. you should get an alignment.

when i was little i was on this big skateboard going down this steep ass hill and then the skateboard got really wobbly at high speeds and i ate it sick.....

yea wheel balancing
and yes a alignment would make a diffrence

i had a broken stud before on my suspension and that made my car wobble at high speeds. but then i got new coilovers and solved the problem.

my jetta only has 3 lug studs on the front driver and 3 on the rear passenger and it wobbles like at 70 plus

needs balance
new studs and wallah should be fine

[slider2828]

really.... hmmm rebalance the tires cause it is free... then I will get alignment

[ae13bravo]

Yeah, tire balance. I had the same problem. It would start shaking at around 73-78. No shaking at higher or lower speeds, only in the in mid 70 range. I got my new tires and rebalaced my wheels and problem solved.

if balancing doesnt help, which i doubt it wont, you can always try and get hubrings...theyre super cheap and just might do the trick...
