Bad shuddering left turns at higher speeds.

As stated when turning left at high speeds it shutters really bad and is hard to turn.. Feels like going over a whole lot of pot holes. It doesn't do it turning right?? Any ideas as to what it could be?

Lower ball joint and or tie rod end is shagged.

Get it in the air and find out what's loose. then replace it.

i would look at both sides. normally when one starts to get bad the other side isnt very far behind it.

I'b be willing to bet your inner/outer tie rod ends are shot. Agree with ^^ you should jack it up, find the culprit, replace and repeat as necessary.

Be ready do spend the $ on a 4wheel allignment too, FWIW. Here in my area usually around $80-110

Hope that helps!

No worries, ill take it to my mates work shop put her on the hoist and have a looksy to see what's happening...
Thanks for the help guys!

 

Could it be a strut, hearing a squeak from the suspension that side?

most likely if it was a strut you would notice it more then just when turning one way, but its hard to really tell without looking at it up close.

did you have a chance to throw it up on the hoist yet??

 

Na not yet, Been busy with work, ill see if I can get it up there tonight..

yea just take a look at it maybes some pictures if you guys cant figure anything out. you no give it a good once, twice look over. hopefully you will be able to find it once its in the air.

 

Yeah no worries, ill let you know my results!
