Y'all, I just returned from having four new Yokohamas (the D rated ones) installed. Ohmygoodness what a difference! It's like the van is on rails! I had no idea how much of the side-to-side mushiness was due to the crappy tires the PO had on. Next comes new shocks all around, new tie rod ends and alignment... and that'll be one slew of problems down for a while. Then it'll be on to the next slew. -jspeer '89 Westy, "Mystery Machine" |
