4853, Why is the front end shaking over 80mph
Posted by preci_eclipse, Dec-06-01 08:52 AM
Wzup everyone? My car's front end is starting to shake whenever I'm at high speeds, anything over 80mph. Any ideas why?
The rims are fine, not dented. I'm thinking maybe discs, wheel alignment or need to adjust motor mount.

Thanks for the help.

Alignment would be the best guess.

Get your tires balanced.

warped rotos would do this too, wouldn't it?

Best bet is a bent rim or alignment

warped rotors, tires could need balancing, or rotating, and an alignment. I'd be willing to bet on the alignment tho. That was my problem. They have the roads all fucked up here. DOH. I'll need another one in a month probably.

I would say you need an alignment, is the steering wheel shaking too??? When my rotors were warped I could only tell when I tried to brake and the car shook like all hell.
