car wobbles in the back
car wobbles in the back
everytime i go over little or any bumps the back of my car would wobbles like really bad...it would sway right and left ... any ideas guys? thx. my alignment is good and i just put on new rear tires.
May want to make sure your rear sway bar and endlinks are all connected properly, check your sway bushings to make sure those aren't excessively worn...if any of those are messed up I'd imagine it would cause your rear to wobble. Not sure what else to check tho. I'm judging by your sig that you don't have any suspension mods. How many miles on the car?
I was about to start a thread regarding this issue also because im going thru it in my sedan. But i noticed it began occurring when my rear SPC cambers were installed. I took them off now and its still doing it. Im guessing it had to do with the process of installing the rear cambers maybe? Somewhere in there something must of been moved tightened or loosened or broken. It kinda feels like any bumps make the G's *** wiggle as if the toe or alignment is off. But my alignment is good and toe. Im Interested in knowing aswell.
39k miles. no suspension mods... yes i think my shocks are out, could my shocks be the problem? but i will check on the swaybar and endlinks tomorrow...and replace the shocks asap. ill let ya know.
Might sound stupid but since you just put on new rear tires, check to see if your lugs are set to the right specs. I think it is some where around 80-85 foot LBS double check though.

My shocks are doing good but i will also check on the sways and endlinks on mine. If you feel you have wheel hop when driving on the highway, then i would say it can definitely be the shocks. Wait, but yours wobbles and mine feels like the *** wiggles each and everytime i hit bumps or when i switch lanes and go over those lane markers. Gl man ima be standing by for updates.
We got them "Wobbles!" LOL
Shocks that are worn do not cause our cars to wobble, it's more of a ocean motion that makes ya wanta ralph
The wobble motion could be caused by a broken sway bar endlink. Get the shocks installed if you know they're worn and you can check the end links while it's up in the air!

car wobbles in the back
so i replace my two rear shocks with some KYB excel-G. they drive better now. the problem is fixed. one side of my shocks were blown the other side was good but i replace both anyways.
Good to know u fixed the issue. I checked my shocks and they are good. My endlinks and sways are good to. Im going to do another alignment and see if anything changes with mine. If not then...
I just had replaced the front ball joints as the old boots were ripped.
Suddenly, there is a new noise under the front and the rear. A knocking.
(Knocking on my chamber door)
Not only was there knocking, while driving slowly over small road imperfections, there was also a "wabble""wobble?"
Not enough to play with the steering, mind you. But a wobble none the less.
Today I got under the ole gal and found two loose Stabilizing Arm Control Links. One on the Drivers front and the other on the Passenger Rear.
Each was about a 1/4" (3 mm) from being tight. Once tightened to torque ftlbs specs... (62 front & 41 Rear).... It's like a brand new suspension again.
No more mysterious wobble. (feared for the worst as this is usually an indicator of brake rotor warping BUT NOT THIS TIME)
No more random clunking.
Just took about 2 hours and 15 minutes to run through the bolts on suspension and check the brakes out, re-grease the guide pins while I was at it. Also took off that pesky rubber sleeve on the top guide pins. Kept the brakes from free motions back and forth. (Good tip received from this site)
Thanks all and I hope this helps someone.
