With all the talk about the "Flex coupling" and questions about raod vibration transmission through the steering I thought I'd mention ... I had an undesirable vibration in the steering. It almost felt like improper balance coupled with loose parts. I replaced the sway bar bushings with poly bushings and it made a SIGNIFICANT improvement. So if a smoother steering feel is desirable, get rid of the old & soft bushings first. FWIW, I had a similar feel in my other high performance vehicle (a not so concours 01 Astro). When I replaced those bushings the feel was SUBSTANTIALLY improved as well. So when the question about how much better the flex coupling feels, it should be in the context of a firm, not failed, front end. ------------------------------------ To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnewsYahoo!
