k so recently i put my car up on the lift during auto tech in high school to
identify front and back suspension and check brakes after that i rotated my tires and put the tires back on accidently i torque wrenched one too much after up on the lift, when i go to 60mph my car starts shaking like it does normally at 90MPH so im like **** and only drivee 50 mph on freeway thus getting honked or stared at.... whats the problem???? is it b/c of tires or something else? |

Yes, i have hub centric rings.
I guess it IS possible the tech didnt do the job right. He did mention that my rear tie rods were looking like they need replacing, so I dont know if thats contributing to the problem or not as I was having some shaking before installing the new tires too (though it seems worse now). Car is perfectly stable at 60mph... but once you got o 75ish and up the shaking starts. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
