ok heres a better way to troubleshoot your problem.

1.) make sure that the lug nuts/bolts are tight and torqued down to the right specs (60-80 ft/lbs.)

2.) do a visual inspection, make sure your tires are good.. check if theres any flat spots.. or kung may bukol (oblong). check the tire pressure too.

3.) if the tires are ok (and kung hindi oblong) then try to get the tires balanced (all 4 of them).

4.) kung ok naman ang balancing.. then you should inspect your suspension system (lower & upper control arms, balljoints, bushings, camber bolts, etc..) make sure everything is tight and not bent.

anywayz, do these steps first. its the easiest and cheapest thing to do. wag ka munang mag pa palit ng parts sa suspension.. try to troubleshoot by doing these simple steps.

also, pag nag wi-wiggle ang kotse (youll feel it from your steering wheel when your around 60-70 mph..) most likely that you have a bad wheel balance. then if the car is shaking (pag matagtag..) its usually caused by bad (oblong) tires.. and worn out suspension components. then if the car alwayz sways or wanders on a certain direction (specially if you take your hands off the steering wheel.. or kung tabingi ang steering wheel) most likely that you have a bad Alignment.

hope this info helps.

In my case I experienced mild tremors at 120 km/h. Hindi nawala sa balancing at alignment. Nawala siya nung nagpalit ako ng goma...ibig sabihin nun, may slight flat-spot na yung tires somewhere.

Pa-check mo na rin yung wheel bearings...it wouldn't hurt having them checked especially on an older car.

more often than not, tires are the culprit
