Handeling difficulty solution
Hi Everyone:
A couple of days ago I posted my problems about my 04 Crossfire handeling difficulties. I appreciate all your suggestions and here's what happened.
First, I made sure the tire pressure was correct, several ties were low. I also made sure all the lug nuts were torqued correctly. They were. No difference in the ride.
I took the car to Les Schwab in Newberg, Oregon (been doing business with them for over 30 years and they are excellent) John Vondrecek, the allignment/suspension/brake specialist discovered a bad right trailing arm. I also put on new front tires and had a four wheel thrust allignment.
Happy to say the car handles liike it is on a rail now. Perfect. What a difference. The cost for all this, a bit over $500. Not bad at all.
So, look at your trailing arms. I am also going to put on the steering damper myself.
Now, about that passenger low beam that illuminates two feet in front of the car. Any easy ways to snap it back where it belongs? Do you take the wire connector off first and then undo the spring clip second and then reseat the bulb? This is about as much fun as replacing the rear light bulbs in a C4 Corvette!
