Front tires & suspension do a lot of things during a wheelstand that you need to be aware of. This may be an extreme example, but still one to consider when it comes to your particular vehicle.

Challenger wheelstand - front suspension issues




That's not bump steer. If you could see both wheels you would see that both tires were going in the same direction. That problem likely would be solved with a steering stabilizer, but you know how weight conscious racers are. That type of wobble occurs most often on light weight front ends with low friction steering components.



Thats my car in 2010 , It does have heim joints rather than bushes on strut rods and uca's but the idler arm bush was pretty much toast there. Front suspension is doing stuff it was never really designed for, probably due to loads of upward suspension travel. It's better after the new idler arm and a set up but still does it to some extent. It also eats upper control arm ball joints. Been told to change to struts if i want to eliminate it entirely
Where would i get a steering stabiliser? is this like a steering damper on motorcycles? Weight is not really an issue on this
