Thanks in advance. >-- I have the same problem (actually a much augmented version) where depending on the road conditions (i.e., assymetric bumps or holes affecting 1 side only), the entire vehicle will SHAKE until I speed down to 20-30 mph. It only happens, as I said, only after one wheel hits something. The entire car will shake, along with the steering column. After slow down, it will return to normal. If the road is free of bumps, it does not have any problem. I have a 1972 Toyota Corolla (argh). I would imagine it needs alignment, but, have not got it to a shop lately.. Any comments will be appreciated. Spiros /* dum Spiro Spero */ ...!ut-sally!usl!sigma
