question for the pros

Postby Dale » Thu Feb 17, 2011 6:44 pm

a friend of mine told me that his sister in laws 89 jeep yj has a horrible bounce in the front when she gets over about 45 mph. they have ran through it pretty good looking for something and had no luck. I guess its really a bad hop, much more then a vibration. I told him I would ask the pros? :lol:

That would be my guess.
TRE, spring bushings, ball joints, and bearings, they are all probably worn.

What is the make, style, size, and condition of the tires? Did they rotate the tires front to back to check for an out of round tire or a tire with a busted cord? Some of the tire shops have balance machines that check for that.
