C5 steering issues?
my vette is a 1997 , I bought it a few months ago and everything has been fine with it besides the belt started to chirp and squeak weeks ago , I replaced the belt with a new gatorback and still didn't fix that problem. a few days ago out of nowhere I started the car up and put it in drive and when I turned the steering wheel it vibrates bad and makes a grinding kinda noise , I jacked the car up and took a look under it and I started the car up with the front wheels off the ground and it doesn't have the problem when the wheels are off the ground , when I drive the car and get the speed above like 15mph it doesn't seem to b as bad but when it slows down below that or at a stop its bad , its driving me crazy , any suggestions at what it could b would be appreciated , thank you
