Wobbling after lowering

[titanium02]

Hi All,

I lowered my 2002 V6 ES with Eibach Pro-Kit + KYB AGX, then did four wheel alignment (both were done by shops). It handles great, but it wobbles everytime I accelerate from stop, then after a while it rolls normally.

I found this post that said there is not much we can do about it:

Did anybody has this experience and was able to fix it?

Thanks in advanced.

yeah, there's pretty much nothing you can do about it. i know in my 7G when i accelerated with my coilovers the wheel would twist to the right and then straighten out after a second and you had to really hold onto it, its gone away now with the eibachs, but you can still notice a pull. lowering cars really fucks with the geometry, some people have hardcore problems and have to resort back to stock.

Could it be a camber problem? I've yet to install my camber kit....but my car doesn't do this.

The alignment are all OK, everything is within the specs, the shop has installed camber correction kit too.

If there is nothing I can do about it, it's really suck. I cann't go to the track with this condition :cry: .

Anybody?

damn, you really should get an alignment. usually your toe will be way out and you'll go through tires faster than a porn star goes through condoms.

Are your wheels balanced properly?

Yes. Everything was fine before I lowered the car.

I don't think so. If it's balancing, you can feel the wobbling no matter how fast you drive. But my problem only exist if I drive between 15-25 MPH, especially after stop.

Help me... If you have this problem, you become a "chicken" at a stop light. Don't even try to race a minivan... :cry:

Hey guys,

What kind setup you have on your car? What brand of springs or coilovers and shocks are you using on car?

This is a known issue with V6 and lowering. The issue is unequal lenght drive shafts on the front one gets put into a bind and causes the shake at takeoff or hard exceleration. There is nothing you can do but raise the front untill the driveshaft is no longer in a bind point.

Please search the forums this has been rehashed about two dozen times, I posted about it first in 2000.
