The best.I got this car for 500. Good in every respect. Except they are notorious for bushings up front. This is as close as I can describe. It vibrates at 5-35 not bad. Getting on freeway it mimics a 737 take off from 40-65 exact replica in intensity . When I back off throttle it smooths out. If I accelerate vibration is there. So far I have replaced inner tie rod bushings no change next I replaced drivers side sway bar link. Still no change. Noticed on rack and pinion the two bushings looking from the driver side by inner tie rod are worn and one seems to be gone.I am no where near competent in auto mechanics. But I am smart enough to know where I can come and always. Get the link to save me hundreds and I will always come to the best place on the web. Also fellas I would pay anything for your help. This time the lhs was parked in am/pm parking lot I was getting a screaming 2.00 burger. Came out car gone bandit tow they wanted 364. Then I said you criminal but also got a 450. Handicapped parking ticket in front of my house on mlk. B-day when no parking enforcement was working. So that has left this retiree broke. Next time I swear cash to ya thank you. Oh I was told 964. Bucks to retrieve lhs from impound. Got em down to 500. Peac.

Ok, Next time the vibration starts shift the car into neutral. If the vibration goes away then its likely the driveshafts(s) is warped/unbalanced. If the vibration continues in neutral then you know you have a wheel balance issue.
