What's wrong with my steering!?!?
It's way too easy to steer! So much so, that at 65+, you're fighting to keep the car on the road because the slightest movement of the steering wheel will send you off the road. What's wrong?

Re: What's wrong with my steering!?!? (corvettemaster)
The car is darty. It could be the alignment, I think too much toe either in the front or back, not enough caster or a problem with worn steering components like the idler arm, the ball joints or the steering box.
Take it in for a alignment and give them the specs you want, they give it a free inspection for worn parts.
I like -.75 camber, + 2.75 caster and 1/16 toe. These specs are not stock but easy to set in your front end.
If you go by stock specs they are quit a bit different from these but these work great without excess tire wear.
Hope this helps
