Default steering wheel

Hey all,

Ok I have this little problem, when at higher speeds my steering shakes quite a bit and when making left turns it's more harder than turning right. I just recently replaced my drive shafts and my new shocks are on the way. What can be causing this shaking in my steering wheel. Oh and by the way I took off my ps belt more than a year ago.

um...

improper tire pressure. probly higher pressure in the left tire and the right is low. start there.

maybe it needs a front end elignment, on my lude when i braked it would shake a lot and i found out i had a cracked/broken in half brake pad. I did both and like u i dont have the power steering either and mine shakes a little bit but i think the front strut bar from tanabe that i put on helped alot with the shaking from the brake pad (and yes i replaced it).

could be warped rotors or your tires became unbalanced

If it's a vibration only at higher speed, then it's your tire being out of balance.

The harder turning in one direction to another is probably improper air pressure.
