Shaky steering with new springs
I just took off my air cylinders up front and put in some S-Techs and now when I am going over 60 mph my steering wheel starts to vibrate. It was aligned a few days ago and the tires were rotated. I have no idea what to do now so any input would help. TIA
Tire rotation in itself can bring on vibrations that will disappear as the tires settle into a new wear pattern...and 1 year in between balances is too long unless you don't drive much...get them rebalanced...balance and rotation should be done every 5,000 to 10,000 miles...
The main things that will cause vibration are:
Alignment
Tire Balance
Bad tire (out of round, cupped etc)
bad struts/shocks
The bad tire should be felt at lower speeds as well. Do the struts seem good and not bouncy? If they seem OK then have the tires rebalanced. If it is still there then rotate the tires and see if that helps. One of these should take care of it.
