help with my scary ride.
Hi everyone, happy new year. I have a 93 sc300. Wich resently i instaled new front lower control arms from supra. Inner and outer tie rods. Rear left lower control arm used.. Twin turbo wheels, 245/40/17 front and 275/40/17 rear and tokico hts lowering springs an shocks. The problem is that after the alightment the car feela very scary. Even if you go at 30 miles in staight line or go over smaland big bumps. The car feels like if you are dribing in ice. Please any ideas of what could be happening?

Brand new. And my stearing rack bushing is ok. I just got home from work. Amd bro its getting worst. When you go into a curv in the express way. The tires sound like if you have too mucha toe in.

Get the car up on ramps and use a tape measure to check your toe, need two people, just check from the tread center front and rear of the tire, alignment machines aren't always accurate.

I would check all the bolts on your wheels and every one under the car. Makes no sense for it to get worse. Was the ball joints not busted and your sway bar links good?

Thank guys i whent to the alightment shop. They. The drove the car. And later on they put it in the lift and the rear right toe control arm was done. The boot was totaly destroyed. So at least i know whats the problem. I was checkingon the prices and the OEM ones cost a hundred and so each. And the megan racing cost around 160 to 190 a pair. So i try to go that rout.
