993Porsche

Today, Andreas solved an on-going problem that I've had for years. It was a vibration that manifested only while braking. Trying to resolved this nuisance, I'd installed/rebuilt new rotors and questionable calipers, new A-Arms, re-balanced tires, alignment and whatever else I could do to get rid of that #$%^&* shimmy. Well "A" pressed in the new urethane bushings and installed them, NOW she's driving like a 993 should be.

Thanks Andreas.

PS: Now if I can only figure out why the steering wheel's cocked to the right.

Ken,
It's always fun to throw some wrenches with you! Don't forget who has first dibs on that high miler!

That is good news! I have also seen this before, I did a set of bushings last year and it solved a long standing front shimmy...

Cheers,

Mike

It's funny how randomly this occurs. Both my 95 and my 97 are on original bushings and have similar mileage (lower-mid 80K miles). No problem at all with the 95 yet, the 97 is giving a slight wobble at certain speeds (not a wheel balance issue, I've had it done twice).

Andreas is good people. Gotta head to Maryland one of these days so I can see what they put in the water over there.

other problem. "PS: Now if I can only figure out why the steering wheel's cocked to the right."

This is generally a toe adjustment....WAS (Wild *** Guess), you could have a bent tie rod(s), but I doubt it. As they say, "When you hear hoof beats, look for horses, not zebras." This homily doesn't work in Africa....
