3. tie rod ends dont seem to have any play in them
4. tire pressures are all the same
5. i need to replace the suspension stabilizer bar
6.the steering wheel almost kind of vibrates when going down the road
7.when i brake the brakes feel like the pulsate sort of and are spongy but it doesnt seem to pull worse when i brake and im pretty sure its because the reservoir leaks
i have not tried greasing the tie rods yet probably will tomorrow
any suggestions??
1. Have the tires balanced.
2. Grease all fittings, if there is substantial play they are shot, just replace them.
3. Replace the stabilizer bar.
4 If the brakes pulsate, there is likely a warped rotor on the front. Have them turned down.
5. REPLACE YOUR MASTER CYLINDER IF IT LEAKS.
6. UNTIL YOU DO DON'T DRIVE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD!
7. Please, for the love of God and all other things holy, use proper punctuation and if you can't do that at least capitalized things that need capitalization.
