Cause of Steering Vibration/Normal for ford cars of this era? Reply #15 – November 27, 2015, 11:29:30 AM Side to side movement is definitely a wheel balance/bent wheel/alignment issue. If the wheel was vibrating up and down and you could feel it in the seats then it would be a driveshaft/rear end issue. Quote Selected

Cause of Steering Vibration/Normal for ford cars of this era? Reply #19 – November 29, 2015, 09:46:46 PM I'll have my mechanic try rotating the wheels around to find the culprit/s; he suggested rotating the rims the day I had the G/T's put on. I think the ride is defenately a result from both the front end and an old ujoint. Thanks for the advice. However, none of this stuff prevents me from treating every stop sign and red light as a staging lane... Quote Selected
