assemblys,The right front had slack, so I took the wheel off.Check
the unit move it back and forth.Mabey in tie rod ? or hub? while I move
the tie rod it had slack to to streering box unit.
The Vett dos not shake that bad .But I KNOW it was better it was before.
IT was
but road hard and put up wett But it has a good strong rebuild
motor in it pull good idal about 560 at 190 but get 230 it run about 700
but it run nurvit but hammer hard to 4500 then no go intake go out

I drive this vet to work ever day and go home about 250 on weekend to home. Thiis vet is not a paly toy but it get home faster.
P.S
I have a soft heart for VET because MY DAD had 63 split window coupe
and he work on it ever weekend

Could be a bad inner tie rod. I replaced the drivers side one last summer. Not too hard to do.
