Ok, I installed a set of Circuit Sports Tie rods and ever since then, I have a noticable popping sound. It sounds exactly like spring bind. I can't see the top of my coils when the car is being turned, so I can't say it's that, but it sounds like it. I just don't see how tie rods can cause coils to suddenly start binding. I also have a shimmer since then also. If I look in my rearview, it looks like I have a bass song on constantly it shakes so bad, but you don't really feel it in the steering wheel...any suggestions?
