I went for a long drive last night to investigate the shimmy.
It's only in right hand turns and only under what I'd call moderate steering.
More steering input, no wiggle.
Past a certain lateral G, no wiggle.
Less steering input, no wiggle.
Below a certain lateral G, no wiggle.
Below 40 mph, no wiggle.
At 55, very pronounced.
Marv is the one who remembered that if you have this kind of shimmy, only in turns, then there's something loose on the outside of the turn as the weight shifts onto the suspension there.
The driver's side did seem a little looser than the driver's when I had the struts out...
Control arms are so much cheaper than struts and MUCH simpler to install. Oh, you can install them one at a time instead of in pairs.
