Cars in the shop- those with Clunk & Vibration problems on highway--
I'm having the Ball joints with the control arms replaced on both sides, as well as the 2 front axels as both cv boots are torn and leaking. they said right side ball joint had LOTS of play, which in turn most likely brought along the wheel vibrations and car violently shaking on the highway at about 80-85mph... the bushings that were replaced probably just masked the problem for a few months until it returned.. lets hope this works... =\

I had all that done, and it still vibrates. Your luck may be better though.
I think my wheels are unballanced right, the stick ons dont stay on there good and fly off but im just to lazy to take it back. Its only a slight vibration though.

good that they found more damage. Keep us posted. Also, consider having the CV joints
Serviced at the rear, and have the CV joints on the driveline serviced. At 175k, the grease on my driveline CV's looked like stiff black dirt.
