Paperscale Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 My 85 Brat has some shakes. not always though. I assume brakes to be somewhat suspect, but she doesn't pull to any side when slamming the brakes, but there is a bit of steering wheel shake. Also, on the interstate, the steering wheel shakes a bit going about 55-70, but once I reach almost exactly 75, there's no shaking and its nice and smooth. What's the problem then? One, or all of these things? I've had new tires and a balance and alignment done *maybe* 800 miles ago. I wouldn't think brakes would affect normal driving at those certain speeds, but I won't be surprised if that's the cause of the steering wheel shaking when stopping hard.

Gloyale Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 ball joints, tierods, and wheel balance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Wheel balance is my guess. When I had the white wagon wheel rims, the only place that could get it right was a local dealer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEECHBM69 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I've had a dry CV axle cause vibration. Went through everything else and it finally stopped when the CV failed completely and I replaced it. Good luck! Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
