front end strangeness....

[Legwagon]

when you turn left or right low speed 0 to 25mph in the 98 lgt it feels like its jittery...or losing traction....??? does anyone know whats up?...I dont know how to explain it....

 

[Legwagon]

just got one tie rod end replaced and a recent alignment as well

 

[redlinerally]

Do you feel it in the wheel? or is it a vibration in the car itself? Any noises to accompany it?

And how much of a turn are you talking about? Small, or full lock?

 

[Legwagon]

a little in the wheel more front end... no real unusual noises. and pretty much full

Where did you get the work done?

Guess1: Sounds like they may not gotten your toe correct. Possible too much difference between the two front wheels.

Guess2: Your differencial or axle(s) are shot.

Its hard telling without driving it. But, if it didn't do it before the alignment....

Ball joints?

Check and see if your wheels are all tight. Just for shits and giggles

See if you are feeling it in the seat at almost full lock. It may be transfer clutches.Go do some figure 8s in a tar parking lot and see if you feel it.

Yes, that's a good possibility too. Expensive, but not terminal.

Went and got the car looked at today...it was the clutch package. thanks a lot for the help guys!

 

[rallyXcramps]

how much are they gonna wack you for that?

 

[Legwagon]

around 500 with labor included. they said it would take 2-4 hours

We get about $600. I hope they check the rear housing before they put it together. That piece is about $300 and wears out. Sometimes you need it, sometimes you don't.
