Suspension Problem Diagnosis
#1
![Default](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I've searched and I've come up with several theories to why my suspension is acting crazy. Anyway here's what's happened so far
1. I had driver's side tire blowout going around 40mph.
2. New tire car was fine for a few days.
3. Car started wandering I had to tilt steering wheel to left to keep car straight.
4. I got an alignment car was fine thought not 100% perfect
5. Two weeks later car was back to pre-alignment status though not as bad.
6. Bumps on the road feel a lot worse for some reason(blown shocks?)
7. I now feel a vibration in steering wheel from about 40mph up.
Body on the car has about 170K so it's due for bushing and wheel bearing change.
I checked shocks(D2's) and saw no visible leaks.
I just ordered Daizen steering rack bushings.
I will be ordering complete CA prothene Bushings this week.
I plan on getting new wheel bearings,hubs etc
Anything else I should check for? Or any other input?

cherplex, I got suspension issue as well. vibration on high speed around 40mph and at low speed i can feel the car going up and down on the driver side.
and I already rule out bent rim.
Changed rack bushing and sway bar bushing with daizen /Energy suspension and its still there.
I will change UCA with Daizen Front camber this week. I already pressed it at 2 degree. Alignment next.
