Default Re: 3rd Gen Camaro Death Wobble!!

Ok, took my car all apart, here's what I found. Ball joints in great shape,idler arm a little loose, center link a little loose at pitman arm, everything else tight. I removed all steering linkage. I removed steering box and examined frame rail, no cracks or any problems, bolts were tight as were the top cover bolts. Reinstalled box and removed cover, box tight and full of grease.
I'm installing all of the new steering linkage. I bougt the Quay bump steeri kit and will drill out the spindles. I'm guessing that using the spacers they provided as is will be OK, that's what Quay recommnded.
Once all of this and the steering stabilizer are installed i will fab a "wonder bar" up to help tie the frt. together.

The new parts plus the shimmy shock will take of your issue.

This was with me in the seat (210lbs), and the front raised approx 2" from rest position.

My car measures approx. 28 1/2" to the very top of the front wheel well opening.
