drive my ’69 on primitive NYC roads, streets, and highways. Whenever I have
anything like what you describe, I check the upper torsion arm adjustment. If
it’s loose, I adjust it. If that’s okay, or if adjusting doesn’t improve
things, I move on to tie rod ends. The last two times this happened, it was a
bad outer tie rod end. Back in November or December, it was my left outer. Now
my right outer is bad and I feel a shimmy in the wheel on bumps and certain
turns. If I tug on the tire, the tie rod end “jumps” a bit up and down in it’s
socket. There’s also a bit of slack in the steering wheel when turning to the
right. I just haven’t replaced it yet b/c then I have to get an alignment
which isn’t a straightforward procedure out here. <BR><BR>I know I’m not one
of the Meisters on this list, but this has been my experience in the last 5
years and 50k+ miles or driving. </FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

was right on target. Plus, anyone who is willing to drop an engine on the
streets of NYC in the middle of winter to fix a problem is a hero to me.
Too damn cold for me to do that anymore (I use a garage). ;-)<BR>
