The front end of my 940T wagon (197k kilometers)was making clunking noises when going over speed bumps however the car was fine at even 140kph.
I replaced the 4 conical bushings a week or so ago(which were shot by the way)with some from fcp groton; the other bushings were good. The repair went well.
Yesterday when at 110 kph on the 401 and turning to change lanes I got quite a wobble from the front end (just for a second or two during the lane change); Going straight no problem- I drove carefully home and inspected the work I had done. The bolts were not loose (as I had expected) the wheel nuts were good too. There was a bit of play in the ball joints and also the tie rods (not much) and I plan to replace these items soon.
Have any brickboard members had any similar problems and any suggestions.
thank you
