Taco Casa in Garland huh? I used to live on Centerville Rd. Kinda brought back some memories, but first place I thought of was Casa Linda on Joaquin.

congrats on the award, it's nice when other people think you have a nice car ain't it?

the shows are usually 40-50 cars, and there might be a charger or 2 but thats it.

awsome, congrats on the win. im always glad to hear a mopar beating out the brand x ers.. I always like going to the smaller shows, the bigger ones dont have the comaraderie feeling like the bigger ones do. small shows i think bring th real car guys together ,unlike the big ones,

went to another show today, got class award again, this time it was a big trophy, biggest trophy ive ever gotten ha. on the way over to the show i noticed a slight wobble or bump in the car but went away as i went faster. go home and its fine on the highway but when i get on small streets and go slow, it has a bad wobble. i cant tell if its coming from the front or the rear, i didnt hit anything so i dont think anything got bent, maybe bushing went out or something? any ideas, ill get under the car tomorrow.

wobble like, feel it in the steering wheel? or car shakes. since the kid hit you in the rear, did he hit the back tire by chance? may have busted a few cords in the tire, that`ll cause a shake. if in the front. does the car pll to 1 side or the other? does it stop when you hit the brake. does the car feel like its shaking from side to side like staggered bumps being hit?

sgp7679

it feels like its hitting little bumps, up and down, doesnt pull to any side, goes straight.

ok sounds like front end prob. lift and support the front end check your tie rods pitman and idler arms, see if theres any slop. should be tight. if any 1 componet moves and the tires or steering wheel doesnt move you have the culprit. while your driving, the play allows the tires in front to move in and out while still going straight, this causes your bumps effect. if its all tight. look at your torsion bars at both ends, see if the bars are loose, then check the upper and lower ball joints, take the wheel by the top and bottom then try lifting it sraight up and down, if it moves that way you have ither a bad ball joint or the bearings froze up in the front hub assm. major poob, let us know what you find from this point.

sgp7679

ok im about to go out and check it out.
