When I go over larger bumps my steering wheel shakes violently left to right.
I recently replaced the intermediate steering shaft and steering gear. Upper and lower ball joints where checked by a mechanic and deemed tight. New Inner and outer tied rods where installed with the new steering gear.
I also have a very slight left to right shaking movement of the steering wheel at highway speeds. All 4 tires are brand new and recently balanced. So I seriously doubt one of the wheels is unbalanced.
There is no steering wheel play whatsoever but the steering does have an overall loose feeling to it.
Any thoughts on what could be causing this?
