Your wheel hub could of jacked up if your rotors are wobbling hahaha.

Bled the brakelines and clutch today. s**t was dirty as f**k lol.

What would cause my steering wheel to shake when on freeway? alignment out of wack or what?

Any recommendations for new brakes for my ej8? i heard good things about brembo blanks and hwk hps...

 

[Noodler]

Brembo blanks and hawks are the cheapest best brakes you cam get. Shaking on the freeway is usually the wheel balance on the front two tires.

Wheel bearings, alignment, wheels need balancing, axles? Brembo blanks and hwk is the way to go!

I just rotated my unbalanced wheels to the back lol. But the rear tires had camber wear .

At least my steering wheel doesn't shake anymore.

 

[Sammo115]

Damn. you guys have some hella bad issues LOL. Geez. All I got is just to recheck my wiring for secondary o2 sensor and just change a cv boot lol. and the rest are just maintenance that needs to be done asap LOL.

What about for the rear..since i have drums?

 

[Noodler]

nothing, just leave them lmao.

 

[Partizan]

lol dont the shoes have to be replaced?

 

[Sammo115]

the shoes for the rear drum last a loooooooooooooong ass time.

 

[Partizan]

AKA never have to be replaced?

 

[Noodler]

it'd be better to replace them with si/gsr disc brakes instead. it'll cost like 100 for the rears, 200 tops. and it'll look cooler

 

[Sammo115]

yeah pretty much the pads rarely needs to be replace unless your at like 300k miles LOL. But if anything were to go wrong it would be the wheel cylinder which would end up you not being able to fully engage your ebrake.

O ok I see.

How easy is the si brake conversion? That takes the whole trailing arm correct? Cause my currently trailing arm bushings are shot anyways...

Trailing arms, master cylinder, brake linkes, ebrake cables, prop valve. Plus rotors+pads.
