Shaking at low speeds.
 
When pulling out from a stop or creeping along in traffic. I feel a shaking when on the gas.
Is this a result of the axles being at a angle. I'm on CM/SSC springs.
It's worse if there is people in the car or on a hill.
Also my car is auto.

unfortunately most cars do shake a little when lowered, some just at different speed. i know my car started a little shake on my cm springs at about 40 kms/h. its nothing big or violent though. did you just notice it after the spring install? or has it always been there>

Nope started after the spring install. I had Pro Kit before and never had it.
Also the steering wheel shakes at the same time. It's only under 10 mph that i feel it.

same here.. try balancing the tires after the springs settle should help helped mine a little bit

bbrewbaker 06-16-2011 04:29 PM

They should be settled. I have 2000 miles on the car since installing the springs.
1000 miles on the tires.

LS2SS 06-16-2011 04:47 PM

have you balanced them, or bent rim idk the car is lowered so coulda hit some shit ya didnt see

bbrewbaker 06-16-2011 04:53 PM

They were balanced when i got the tires.
But if it was a wheel out balance wouldn't it be felt at higher speeds?
I only feel it under load at speeds under 10mph. It's really bad moving slow in traffic. The more weight in the car the more i feel it.

I'm back on stock springs.
No more shake.

I'm on megan coilovers lowered to the max in front and back and i get that shake when i go into 2nd gear. Its a little annoying but I know what it is so it doens't bother me i just don't get on it in 2nd....otherwise it gets worst or if im hard on it its a fast vibration that doesn't shake much.
