My 93 sc seems like the front end is a bit loose - any ideas on what to look for - the steering wheel shimmies a bit at highway speeds and the steering seems a little sloppy - In your opinions would this be ball joints - tie rods - idler arms - shocks - or maybe all of the above - would sway bar tie links do this???? Thanks in advance for your ideas and direction.

sincerely

No replies yet huh.. I'd look first at the tie-rods and idler arms. If you're having shimmy, then you should be able to jack the car up, grab/pull/push the wheels all around and see where the loose parts are.

Worn out shocks will cause hard slams when going over minor bumps and dips. Most of the other parts will cause clunks and shifts when they start to wear out.
