need help!!!
 
just last week as i was going about 80-90 mph this car got in front of me and i had to brake very fast but when i did that the right tire started to vibrate a lot. this only happens when im going fast and i try to brake could it be a tie rod or the control arm.

any help please

Could be a control arm... But sounds like a BJ

Are you or have you been gettin any squeaks? Any pulling right or left?

could be something simple like the tires need re-balanced as well. i had mine recently done and my highway vibration went away.

no pullings but i hear like something is loose like a squeak when ever i hit a bump but just from the right side but my tires are balanced because thats what i first did when this happend i got them balenced.

prolly the larger front control arm...they will squeak when they need replacing....

fcpgroton on ebay has good deals on them....I just bought both sides shipped to my door for 95$...they took me a good two hours to replace....

gl!

alex05 Sep 17, 2008 09:20 PM
