Chasis Vibration
I recently had my top control arms and lower front control arms replaced. a new steering rack new front brakes (pads/rotors), new swaybar links, and new front struts.
I have this realy annoying chasis vibration when crusing or driving around town, which gets worse when driving on the hwy, it feels a bit like a bent rim or flat spotted tyre, I have replaced the tyres nd balanced, got a full alignment done, had the brakes checked over (they seem to be fine), CV check out ok. The vibration was arround before all the work got done but wasnt anywhere near as bad as it is now.
When they did the work they didnt replace the (front) rear lower control arms is it possible for them to cause a chasis vibration?
Any ideas?

chassis vibrations is not usually due to misalignment...
look for something that moves with speed to be the cause of speed dependent vibration. Could any of the rims be slightly bent, though they were able to balance? Or a tire which is out of round, etc. I would talk to the gy doing the balancing myself to see how out of spec they are. Also could be related to a bad CV joint, wheel bearing (though this should make moise)
