the other day i was driving down the road and a friend of mine was following me and he said that my left rear tire was wobbling really bad, i got to the house and checked all the lug nuts and they were tight, the tire was balanced and i didnt see any weights missing. could it be a bad dtss bushing or what?

dtss doesnt work when you are driving straight.
you have to jack up your rear end and wobble your wheel and see what else is loose. |
Check for bent wheel. Get the wheel off the ground and see if it oscillates while turning. If you don't have any vibration, it's probably the wheel.
|
jacked the car up today and checked for wheel "shimmy" was slight shimmy but no enough to make the tire do like it was, it was very little, so im currently replacing that and seeing if that helps. im still leaning towards a dtss bushing problem though becuase when i removed it the inside was all messed up. and im pretty sure if it allows your wheel to turn in a hard turn then if its messed up bad then it would cause a wheel to shimmy even in a straight. going to replace the bearing and if that doesnt work im going to do the rear steer eliminator bushings and see if that fixes it.

I guess the DTSS bushing could cause that if it were severely deteriorated, cause it is one of the few things holding the floating hub to the suspension... i know it sounds dumb but make sure the lug nuts were tightened completely and that the wheel isnt bent
|
just get the dtss killers, save some trouble
|
yeah they were all tight, so i ordered the dtss killers today and they should be here in about a week, i wanted sooner but they didnt give me a shipping option. oh well.
