What's the rod that connects directly from wheel to wheel in the front? I noticed that looks like it's shot but I'm not sure what its called.

Is your front prop shaft on or been taken off? ;Last year I took my front prop shaft off to get home after a UJ failure. I had terrible death wobbles 50 mph and above; it was very scary.

I found out that the front axles is driven ands thus the tracking is toe out. However when the prop is not present (non driven) you need a bit of toe in.

Other things I found that contributed to the symptoms was: Panhard Rod bushes shot, worn ball joints on drag link & steering link, a worn wheel bearing (mine felt ok till I dissembled the hub & it was shot), Hockey Stick Suspension Arm bushes (mine were blue polybush which are too soft for the RR so replace with OEM Rubber).

Also, if you have 18" wheels these cause wobbles. Whereas the 16" don't

All this finally cured the wobbles.

I do have 19" wheels instead of 16". And there is something missing under the car that is supposed to be attached the the driver side front wheel. I cants tell what it's supposed to go to. And I saw the bushings on my front stabilizer bar look shot.

The car now like wobbles or limbs is only way I can describe it at low speeds. Could this just be an alignment issue?
