Vibrations while Cornering
OK so I am getting harsh vibrations while going around right hand corners (or load is placed over the front driver side wheel). The only way to describe this vibrations is to compare it to driving over cobble stones. I can feel the vibrations through the steering wheel as well.
However when the vehicle is driving in a strait line or going through left hand corners the car is fine. It almost feels like the suspension compresses a little bit, it locks up then starts vibrating. What could cause this? I am trying to solve this myself. So far I have....
-Checked the lower ball joint it moves freely checked it for play it's solid.
-Checked the tie rod it's moves freely and there is no play
-Replaced drive axle, vibrations still occur
-Replaced Hub, Vibrations still occur
- Jacked up car shook the wheel up, down,left ,right checking for excessive play there is none.
- Removed Abs ring from both front axles, vibrations still
there.
- Vibration is not engine speed related, I push in the clutch and take a right hand corner, car still vibrates. The faster I take corners the harsher the vibrations.
- Performed 4 wheel alignment.
- Removed the strut , compressed it downward, it was stiff, and it returned to it's normal position at normal speed.
I am using a progress front sway bar and have Kyb gr2 shocks/tien springs installed no other mods to suspension done.
