My 300ZX shimmys between 50-70mph, I have had the wheels balanced twice now and installed spigot rings to my spacers. Any ideas? Could the tyres be out of shape? Could it be down to worn suspension components?

 

Thanks, Dan

probably be your hicas arms at fault . have you jacked up the rear and felt for play in the wheels

Prolly as Mikey says the centre bearing or maybe the props mis aligned.

If it is that important to put the prop back on as found, for balancing reasons, what about all us manwell converts, with two different prop halves?

Cheers guys, I will get the car in the air this weekend. I should say that the wobble is coming through the steering wheel, could this still be the prop and or hicas at fault?

suck it and see mate :) or get it balanced at a shop somewhere.

perhaps the two halves were balanced separately when made originally...

Anyone?

Try removing your spacers if possible or swapping the back/front wheels as a trial to eliminate those from the equation.
