- No, it's not. Shaking after hitting a bump means your shocks are bad. Get them fixed - it can be dangerous to drive on the highway with bad shocks. Alan -- Sent from my mobile device Alan '52 A90 '5

- Bad shocks don't cause a car to shake, just bounce a lot more before they settle down. I think you should check out your king pins. Badly worn king pins will make the car shimmy. Sounds to me like yo

- Front end kits are readily available. The work can cost upwards of $1000.00 depending on the shop or whether you do the work yourself. But, as the man says, "You can pay me now or you can pay me lat

- I agree with the worn suspension and steering components (inc shocks), plus how well is the body connected to the rest of the car? I recall a 100S that I once went for a long drive in. It had been r

- Not only that, the physical and emotional scarring that comes from removing and replacing long ago rusted-in-place A-arm mounts is the right of passage that marks you as a true "Healey Nut" (plus, yo

- If the entire car is shaking and it seems uncontrollable you may have a problem where the A-arms attach to the frame; especially the inner A-arm attachment. Look very closely to see if the A-arm att
