hey everyone i have a 95 mitsubishi eclipse gs and when i bought the car it was lowered so i put a camber kit on it and got a wheel alignment well i have been driving it for a couple of weeks now after the alignment and everything and now when i get on the highway and get it up anywhere from 60-70mph it wants to sway and it feels like there is alot of wheel hop well the other day my g/f was driving behind me while i was doing 65mph and she said it looked like the tires were about to fall off they were shaking so bad, when i get it up to 60mph it starts to shake and sway but once i get to 70mph it pretty much stops and it drives fine can anyone kind of giveme a clue on what i should check could it possibly be the bushings are out or maybe the tires are bad please help if you have any more questions please ask and i will answer thanks

 

come on people i really need some help

 

tires might need to be balanced or replaced, shocks might be blown (prob are if they are stock) and easiest solution and most unlikely that the wheel lugs are loose

 

thanks for helping i bought rims and tires so the rims would be wider and the tires would be brand new hopefully this helps if not then i will go with the shocks and if thats not it then i will go with bushings but thanks for the help i really appreciate it

 

lets us know the verdict after all this stuff goes on

 

yea if you have the stock shocks i'd be willing to bet that they are blown, how many miles are on it?

 

i think this is the same problem im having. i believe my shocks are stock still. but its when i get going over 70 that i feel the rear end swaying

mine is a 96 esi with 154k

 

yea if you have 154 on original shocks i would say it's time for an upgrade or replacement

 

hahah oh and they squeak when u push down on the back of my car.

hey sk8 im not good at this online shopping stuff at all can you help me find some replacement shocks? ebay or whatever. thanks

 

well there is only 99k on them but whoever owned it before me lowered the car and didn't get a camber kit put on it and i don't think they got the tires balanced and a wheel alignment either so i think its the tires but it may also be the shocks so i get my new tires and rims today so we will see how everything works out
