Chevrolet C60s - Front Wheel "shimmy"

[Bob Carriere]

There has to be some looseness somewhere......

Reading back on previous postings......

There seemed to have been some improvements when the steering box was adjusted..... would it be worth while revisiting....or even doing a total disassembly of the gear box for a visual inspection of parts for unusual wear patterns.

Were the steering linkage taken appart for inspection.... I know I have taken some apart that had eggshape wear pattern on the round pivot balls or weak/collapsed springs.

Same could be said of the tie rods.... not sure if they are all meant to be taken apart but some I did and found some were good some were worn oval over the years of service.

Did you rotate the tires before your last road test. would it be possible to borrow a full set of wheels from a cooerative friend and do the road test again????
A bad set of already cupped tires could be a nasty composition to overcome.

Wishing you luck and will eagerly follow your trials and eventual tribulations in my search of knowledge.

Cheers
