What is everyone using?

Post by Car54 »

145,000 miles, changed out the control arms, hubs inner and outer tie rods.

My last item to replace is struts up front. I can get new struts @ RA, buttt no one sells the springs.

What is being used to replace the springs, stock configuration? Do not want to lower the car.

Car still shakes and pulls after an alignment at the dealer. Is there a way to recalibrate the steering? My ‘17 Regal there was a way “dealer of course” to recalibrate the steering.

It’s also “drifty” at highways speeds above ahhem 70.

Also 4 new stock size tires. Have rotated them around the car to no change.

Any chance you can post your alignment numbers? If you just got it aligned it shouldn't be pulling. If the steering angle sensor was off you'd get a Traction Control light and a code for it.
Shaking is tire balance, or another balance problem, but not an alignment problem.
Once you replace the struts you're going to need an alignment again.

Joe,

Dealer didn’t give the alignment numbers. I can see if they have them in their files for the car.
