Suspension Guru question

[JayG]

Just had an alignment done
Toe was off on the front

Now have 0.03 total toe front and 0.10 rear
also camber went from -.9 LF -.4 to -.9/-.7 (maxed out)

I had them check the components for wear and they said all was good

Still have a vibration starting at 80 MPH. Gonna have the balance checked
Also still have a drift to the right, Castor is 8.0 LF and 7.6 rt. Looks like the only way to fix that is the Wishbone Adjustable With Eccentric Screw and it is ~$450 rather than $100

It's possible that the wheel weights that assist in tire balance have come off. You could tryou getting your tires rebalanced. How old are your tires?

I had the same problem which 99% of vibration gone after a road force balance ( simulates weight of the car when balancing).The shop I took it too said road force balancing equipment used on the website. I can tell you that after 95k I have replaced the entire front suspension chasing rattles, drifting, twitchy steering as well as vibration. Good luck!

Hmm, then I'm not sure. Could be wheel bearings?

Check Elephant Suspension, they sell some replacement bushings that can help you get those into adjustment, if it turns out that is what you need to do.
