This is what they look like. I just finished installing them myself. As you can see in the picture they were messed up. I had the same shaking problem at about 60 and up for a while and still do a tiny bit. I had new good year tires put in a year or two back, always balance all four tires. Never go the cheapest on the tires, when I first got the car, the tires where bald, I was on the freeway and was going slow and the plan was to change the tire the next day. To make a long story short, the tire blew up on me on the freeway and broke the side light and messed up the side of the car. I also changed the whole rack and pinion a few years back hoping that would take care of the shaking, but nope. Still get that every now and then, but today I noticed that the tie rods are not evenly screwed on both sides, meaning who ever the guys that did my alignment didn't even bother to check this until I found it now. One side, 21.5 turns to take it out, the passenger side, 9 turns...this may explain a hell of a lot. So I also purchased some bushings today to fix the old front stabilizer bar up front. I'll get that squared away before I take it to get that alignment done again. A new place and hopefully someone that knows what the heck they're doing. All my other bushings and things are okay, so I'll change that front stuff first just to make sure things are cool for the most part.
I need new rotors too since the old ones are low now and I also need to fix that clutch cylinder that's leaking again. Anyone know of a better replacement for this? This is the one pain every now and then. I need something that lasts a bit more. And no I don't have a heavy foot either.
