Good Vibrations????

[yawnraval1]

I have the 90 Q45 on the road, almost....... still 1 major thing left to do (guides) and a few very minor things to do. But I did find one more thing. While testing it I noticed that when I got up to 55 the right front end started shaking pretty wildly. anything below 55 was smooth as silk. So I eased the accelerator back below 55 and the vibration went away. The pull to the right while above 55 was very mild though. If I had to rate the strength of the vibration from 1-10 with 1 being no vibration and 10 being that you couldn't hold on to the steering wheel without your teeth rattling out of your head then I would rate what I have a 5.

Looks like I need some front end work. I do not have the means to do an alignment but I would like to overhaul the parts myself and then have someone align it. What parts could you guys recommend?

A vibration is probably not going to be alignment.. Id check your outer tie rods for play and possibly your wheel bearings.

I thought wheel bearings as well. My mother had this old 76 maverick that would literally hop going down the road. Turned out it was from a worn out upper bushing. Thanks for the Info.
