Front end issues

[ghosts14]

The front end on my 96, just doesn't feel as planted as it used to be. Basically is feels kind of like the front end of the car kind of sways when just crusing at freeway speeds.

What would cause that kind of problem and how would one fix it?

there could be couple of causes that i can think of... first, check your alignment, some toe out might cause the freeway floating problem. second, take a look at your tension rods, the bushings are filled with some sort of oil, and these bushings tend to blow out very, very easily. blown tension rod bushings will cause the car to have shifting alignment. uh... other than that, tie rod bushings, bad camber, camber wear in tires, bad rack-n-pinion, and difference in tire inflation could all be possible causes. but the first two is most likely the case. i hope that helps! good luck.

Thanks for the help, I am taking the car into the alignment shop with in the next week, hopefully that will take care of the issue.
