It's been a few days since it fell off.
I finally took out the stock air box and put it back in and idk what that did but they suggested it and it seems to have worked.


On another note what is the purpose of the panhard bar?

For when you wear the ones you have now out?

Yah but I'm gonna do the fox racing coil overs. Just a matter of time and whenever Yates gets the air kit together.

Hahaha only problem is that's a ford.

My dad used to own Unique Conversions. They only did GM trucks so I'm a GM man.

Unique Conversions is just like regency in fact regency was their competition.

Well guys I spent most of my day with breaks and all that replacing my struts and my hands and arms are black.

But I still have that left right left right bounce and I am completely lost as to where it's coming from. I really want to get this fixed because I'm about to drive all the way to Colorado on the 28th and I'm really close to pulling the trigger on fox racing coil overs I don't want this problem to continue when I just spent so much on coil overs.

These are all the things I've done to try to find it please help me or give me more things to check.
I've checked the rear springs are properly seated.
I've replaced both front struts now.
Disconnected the front sway bar.
Checked that both my front springs have the same part number.

The only thing I could think of that I have not checked or have a way to check is that it could be maybe one of the lowering spindles is bent...

PLEASE help me!!!

I typed all that and forgot to describe the issue.

The problem happens only at highway speeds or that's the only time it's noticeable.
It's over rolling bumps what I mean by that is like rolling hills of a field.
It feels like the car is wiggling back and forth coming back up from the bump. At some points it even feels like the car is pitching forward to the drivers front.

No not really a boat motion.
It's like a shimmy.

Yes I replaced the 4600 with new 4600 hoping maybe one had been damaged.

But it seems they were fine.
I replaced them in desperation I had no idea what is causing this. It's so annoying. I just feel like it honestly has to be the spindles but that just doesn't make sense to me

Mine was doing that somewhat and it turned out the rack was leaking internally and I had to replace it.
