Wiggle at 60KPH

**yakuini** · January 29th, 2003 02:25 PM

Guys patulong naman po.

Box-type Lancer po ang sasakyan ko.

Pag pumapalo na ng 60KPH ang sasakyan, nagwi-wiggle na ang steering. Pero pag lumampas na sya ng 70KKPH, okay na takbo. Pag preno naman at bumalik ng 60KPH, wiggle ulet.

Pero hindi naman all the time, pero madalas nagwi-wiggle sya, depende rin minsan pag di maganda ang pagka asphalto siguro ng daan.

Heto na po ang pinagawa ko.

1. Wheel alignment (na fix sya pero after 2 to 3 days, balik problema ulet)

2. Tire rod (pina-machine shop ko, wala kasing available na bnew so pina-machine shop ko na lang. Same result, after 2-3 days balik problema)

3. Idle Arm/Pit Arm (wala ding available na bnew so bagsak machine shop ako. Okay ang result, tumagal ng two week then after that balik problema ulit)

Ano po ba sa palagay nyo ang possible fix dito?

There's something wrong with your tires. Baka may bukol yan or may putol na ply sa loob. Worse case, yung mags or tire rims mo may bingot o kaya may basag na maliit that would cause your vehicle to wiggle. Better check them as soon as possible, para di masayang yung pinalitan mong parts kundi damay sa pag sira yan.

Thanks. Bago po yung dalawang tires ko sa harap. BF Goodrich R14 po size ng mags ko.

Di po ba sisingaw ang gulong kung me lamat ang mags? Okay naman kasi gulong ko.

Any other thoughts?

Nope, di sisingaw ang hangin kung ang lamat ay sa labi lang ng mags. Better check it visually and closely for un-noticed crack or chip-off part.

Yung sa akin mas malaki goma ko sayo, ganyan din ang problem. But I haven't fixed it yet. 5 times na ako pabalik balik ng wheel balancer. Hanggang sa napansin ko may chipped part na sin laki ng butas ng singko sentimo pala. :x

IMO, pag nakuha ng wheel balancing yan matapos mo ibalik ng mga 5 times din, pwede mo na muna pag tyagaan. :wink:

sakit ng box type yan..ganyan din nangyari sa akin..

usually yung bushing sa idle arm ang lagi nasisisra

pero sabi mo nga ok na lahat ng tie rod and pit arm mo
then bago pa mga tires mo...

try mo rin check ulit yung mga pina machineshop mo kung
ok pa rin.....
hmmm..siguro try mo rin check yung steering box mo

Try wheel balancing. It may do the trick. :wink:

yup, wheel balancing din ang hula ko... kasi ganun lang ginawa sa car ko... after a few tinga wala na! heheehe

wala na palang piyesa ng lancer? alam ko madami sa banawe nito ah.. have u tried looking at banawe? madaming 555.

yup wheel balancing nga yan.

ikaw na rin nagsabi, bago yun front tyres mo. baka hindi mo pina-balance. you should have your wheels balanced everytime you change your tyres or have a flat tyre repaired. pag nagpa-vulcanize ka kasi naiiba yun balance ng gulong mo and also hindi naman naibabalik sa dating position yun tyres sa wheel kaya nag-iiba ng balance.

pag bago naman tyres mo, yun pag-manufacture kasi ng tyres e hindi talaga equal ang pag-lagay ng rubber. parang mahabang juicy fruit chewing gum yung raw rubber, ibinabalot dun sa ply. so meron yang 2 ends kung saan nag-start at nag-end yung pag lagay ng rubber. yun din ply ng tyres ganuon din, may start at end sa pag-putol. the result is unequal mass distribution in the tyre sa manufacturing pa lang.

COrrect!... wheel alignment will do the trick... but just to add, what we should normally do when we experience this "wiggle" on our front wheels... first is always to have it aligned then only after this can we have the wheel balanced... why? for the obvious reason that when we do wheel balancing, faults can be easily corrected and is concentrated mainly on the wheel/tire level.

for all you know, the problem has been corrected, well yes :D , for the wheel but for the mechanism holding the wheel - NO! :shock: usually we tend to forget or worst we even ignore to have the alignment checked. from my experience, alignment is usually for free if they dont see any problem. Pag nalaman na natin na okay yun, then, we can be sure that it's time to have the wheel balanced. BUT WAIT!.. puwedeng steering assembly din ang problem ha... pero worst case scenario na yun... hope this helps :D
