So it was the first snow and i decided to go do some donuts this morning and after i did a few i left the parkig lot and went out and around 40 mph i start to get this pretty vigorous shaking and its kinda scaring the **** out of me, cleaned out the mass of snow up underneath and checked out the suspension etc, and the shaking is still there. anyone know what this could be?

 

Is the vibrating coming from the front or rear?

 

O **** my bad , I believe it to be front right

 

could be snow in the wheel making it off balance

 

what im hopin but ive already cleaned alot of **** out and not seein much more, its scaring me to think its a ball joint or axle, Im not one to scare easily but when i get up round forty im pretty ****** nervous when the car is just shaking to all hell. Not to mention doin an axle or ballj. in the snow for the first time

 

Go somewhere with compressed air that you can use to blow it all out from each tire. The heat from the brakes tends to melt the snow just enough for it to get wet, then it turns to ice. Hard to see w/o unmounting the rim, yet heavy enough to cause shaking. This used to happen to my Shadow a lot, especially when I'd try driving it up/though snow banks at school. Good times...

 

that all u think it is?...............anyone else?

 

lol, i just did the same thing. i think it's coming from the rear on my car though

 

makes me feel a lil better

yea, same here. I hope I didn't mess anything up too bad

 

Im not afraid of replacing a balljoint or control arm its just that I dont have a shop and its ******* 5 degress outside

 

anyone?

 

you might wanna check your motor mounts. while doing donuts you probably had some wheel hop at some point and caused one of the mounts to break. might even be the bracket that connects the mount to the transmission.

 

did you hit any curbs or potholes doing doughnuts?

Dude quit posting you have snow in your wheel.

All you can do is wait for it to melt or take you wheel off and clean the snow off!

Even if you did brake something you think somone is going to know based on the half assed too lazy to type more than 3 sentences and expect somone to give you a thought out educated guess decription you gave?

Yeah... check your wheels. If it's anything else, it's your fault and consider this a good reason to not do dumb ****.
