    I replaced my upper/lower control arms along with my tie rods and sway bar links. After I installed them my steering wheel was sticking and a vibration was happening, I took it to Toyota and they say my sway bar bushing and links failed, they looked fine but I replaced them. Still the vibration and steering problem happened. I took it to another mechanic and he say my ballpoints are bad which is causing it to stick and not return to center but isn’t sure why it would vibrate, it did not do it before I replaced everything.

    I bought new upper and lower control arms from Toyota and am hoping it will fix it, it vibrates all the time, the faster the stronger the vibration, it will also go away or extremely become less when I’m accelerating, as soon as I let off the gas it comes back. I’m sick of trying to figure this out, you guys have any ideas?

    I have a 2010 Toyota Tacoma and the only thing I know I did wrong on the installation is I have my upper control arm washers facing sent out instead of in, could that be it?

    Update, my CV axle where it connects to my differential seems to be leaking but very very slow, to the point where you would never notice it drip, although it seems to be a little lose where it connect to my differential and allows play, does it need to be deplaced
