Default Re: 32 front wheel shimmy

Robert,
On early Fords I run the toe in at 3/16"" when running bias ply tires., and the tire pressure at 35 psi. My 33 had the "Death Wobble" at 35-45 mph. A steering gear adjustment fixed it as it had too much sector play. Also as mentioned in a previous post, if the tie rod ends / drag link are too loose they can cause the same issue. I use the same method as Davis J, except I run mine a bit tighter (3 rounds) presuming the B-3111 steering balls aren't worn.
