    Yesterday I installed some new Total Chaos UCA's and some Fox FTS2100 coilovers. They worked great before I set the preload but after setting it I had a weird vibration when turning. I had a reputable shop alaign it and now the vibration is better but still prevelent when turning left at speed (15+ MPH). Any ideas on what could be causing this? I can provide pics and any other details needed.

    I'm thinking it could be CV Axels, wheel bearing, or LCA ball joint. Does this seem like I'm on the right track?

    Thanks!

    3" and they are pretty flat from the previous owners neglect to alaign.

    Cool. I'll drive to work this week and see if anything gets worse. It'll probably be a good idea to replace bearings and ball joints any way seeing as they are most likely original. Thanks!
