Subject:      Front end seems wrong
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

My blue 84's front end seems to move around a lot more than my brown 84. They both do not have power steering. The front tires between the two vehicles are different. In windy conditions it's scarey to go over 62 mph as the front end wants to dip or bounce or something. I've checked the shocks and the stabilizer arm and can't determine anything wrong. I don't feel any slop in the steering wheel like the gears are worn or anything. The front end was aligned and the tires are wearing evenly. It just seems to float around too much.
