I found that setting the front end ride height to factory stock specs, and adding a little toe-in fixed my problem. Mine started doing the shake when I tried to lower the front of the car. I also installed a set of these type strut bars, really helped make the car drive nice. When the suspension goes through it's movement, any deflection of the strut rod bushings, really affects the caster, on the car. and these will let you dial in a little more positive caster if needed. And as mentioned, make sure all the suspension is tight, no looseness anywhere.


Thanks. We usually set the toe with the front end raised an inch, and I did forget to mention that I did swap out the strut bars for the aluminum QA1's with spherical rod ends (didn't help). We'll check the toe change when we get it ready for the season.


How much does the toe change when the front end is not raised, or is compressed some?
