My steering wheel shakes really bad and I hear a loud rattling on the drivers side of the car. I just changed the sway bar link today as I was told it might be that but the noise is still there. We checked the bushings and they are ok. What else could be wrong. Im really worried.

There are a few things that could cause your steering wheel to shake while driving.

Bent rim, bad tire, bad CV joint/axle are the most likely causes.

Don't listen to people when the say "replace THIS because it MIGHT be."

Have your components tested properly and you'll save yourself time and money.

A reputable alignment shop will give you a free estimate. Go with their suggestions.
