96 S-10 Blazer 4x4 4 door sways side to side

Has anybody had a problem with the truck rocking side to side? Tires are almost new, shocks are good, but when I hit a bump or dip in the road the Blazer sways side to side. I know that it is top heavy but when a guy cut me off on the highwat last week I almost rolled it. This is getting dangerous as it makes the truck hard to handle esecially on a curve in the road. My Blazer is a 96 4x4 4 door with 200,000 Kms.

Yep, been there, done that. On mine it was a broken bolt on the front sway-bar. The bolts that go through the eyelet on the end of the sway-bar just rust off, which lets the end of the sway-bar just hang there. A replacement kit, which includes the bolts and rubber bushings, is available at your local parts store.

Either that or you have a shock that came loose. Visual inspection should reveal the problem.

Let us know what you find and we can help you further if need be.
