Do bad struts cause this?

GoldenCoupe · 03-17-08, 04:31 AM

Every bump I hit makes my steering wheel shake

!!! I had a bad upper control arm on the passenger front side which was recently replaced. I figured this would solve the problem, but unfortunately not

!!! I've been told that my struts need to be replaced and I have some konis to put in, but is this the reason my wheel shakes like it does? Every bump is felt, and it sux ass!!

front struts, high tire pressure, tie rods, etc... could be your problem
