1990 Dynasty... front end shimmy...
1990 Dodge Dynasty runs great, even after 270k miles. Only unusual problem is that their is a front end shimmy and I can't find the cause. Wheels and tires are fine... cv-joints(axles) seem to be fine motor mounts seem in tact... what the heck is going on here?! Any ideas or suggestions?

Re: 1990 Dynasty... front end shimmy...
If you have had tranny work recently, the mounts and the axles may look ok, but there's a good chance that the driveline angle is off and that's why you have the vibration.

Re: 1990 Dynasty... front end shimmy...
Worn shocks/struts, or any other parts in the front suspension can cause the problem. After 270k, it's likely time for some replacement parts.

Re: 1990 Dynasty... front end shimmy...
I have a 94 Dynasty with the same problem. I love the car it runs great, it's fast as hell, but the same thing with the front end sounds like its gonna shake apart when you hit a bump or rough spot in the road.
