When I hit a bump at an angle (on the freeway or on the street), sometimes the front end will sway dangerously side-to-side. The motion is analogous to a rolling motion. My first impression is that t

Mine does the same thing. It has the original suspension (as best I can tell). It feels a bit like riding on the Oregon Trail in a connestoga wagon.... I heard (or read....perhaps on this list) that

Tom, sounds suspiciously like "bump steer", which is the dreaded curse of a lot of hot rodders. It comes from changes in the steering geometry that have affected the steering arm radius measurements

I installed a sway bar on my 49 3100. I had also installed a 350 motor and needed a better ride to handle greater highway speeds. It works great. I have been over 100mph In my truck and the handling

Prior to redoing my front end with the mono leafs, my truck used to do the same thing. I referred my front end action as darting. I would hit a minor bump and the truck would quickly try to dart to o

I've installed a after market sway bar in my stock front end. It does a great job of controlling body roll or leaning on turns. I does nothing to help bump steer or darting. After reading different d

Just wondering...could a bent tie rod cause this? I remember that, when my was on the straight axle suspension, the tie rod that runs under the truck had a serious kink in it. I always wondered how i
