Default Found the solution to my wandering steering...

So today I took my 95 Jimmy to a shop to find out why the thing wanders all over the road... turns out I need a new Idler arm, pittman arm, and the passenger hub. $640 to do all that for me... Ugh.

Also i have a bang or pop that i can hear and feel when i stop heavily and then take off again. I thought it was worn out bushings allowing the control arms to load up under braking, then popping as they unload during acceleration, but the shop found out that I have a broken motor mount... Yay me. this is another $450....

Normally I do my own work, but I recently fubard my hands up and frankly dont want to work on all the rusted bolts and such in the cold to do this myself... I am having the steering fixxed next week, but am holding off on the motor mount.

not sure why im posting this, but oh well, I typed all this, might as well hit submit, right?
