Ok, car: 93 Civic Hatchback
Problem: When driving around the wheel shakes back and forth I guess you can say shimmies... I dunno
Possible Solutions: I have GSR Brakes along with the knuckles and whatnot, if I install these will that fix the problem? or is it just simply an alignment problem that can be fixed in getting an alignment?

Thanks for the help

At what speed does this happen? How about a description of the condition of your tires. Have you checked the lugs?

 

Lugs are good, tires are good, everything is good. It happens when I'm goin from start to 25ish.

 

axles may be going out...is there alot of greese flung all over the knuckes or shocks

 

On the Drivers side there is... could that be the problem?

 

Normally you will know when your cv's are on the way out by hearing a clicking noise around corners. But that isn't always the case.

I would bet on the boots...by the way you can swap them out yourself.

 

bump for other suggestions, even though thats probably the problem.

 

bad CVs, bad hubs, warped rotors, bad tires, tossed ball joints, loose bolts, and ETC...

 

Have you checked to see if your tires are out of balance? Alignment?

 

I think RangerDan's right about the CV's, at least as far as the grease "clue"
goes. Warped rotors do it too, but only when braking, harshly. An alignment/
balance would be my last option: when the problem's more of a "nuisance"
than an actual "problem", so to speak.

 

maybe a wheel bearing going out or something along that matter... good luck

 

I agree with the CV joints, check them out. If your boot is ripped there is going to be a ton of grease around it.

 

definetly the CV joints. just because there is no oil aleaking doesnt mean its no the problem. put ur car on a lift jacks whatever and spin the tires, youll notice that the axles are most definetly worped

 

Thanks, I'll check that out. I am going to get an alignment since I am lowering the car too! Thanks for all the ideas

 

warped rotors... def.... been there done that

 

Wouldn't I just feel that when braking?
