I recently installed skunk2 springs, anyways now when i'm driving it hard from 30mph to 55mph it has a shake, but i feel like the shaking is coming from the front wheels and also when i'm driving highway speeds like 60 - 70 there isn't a shake at all even if i do hit it hard, the shaking stops around 55mph but that's when i hit it hard only.

 

Could anything been broke while i installed the rear springs because i had to really push down the the A arms to make the suspension fit and i'm wondering if that could of damaged anything because of all that pressure i made from bringing it down.

 

if something did go bad during the install, the shaking would continue not just at some speeds.

 

Your right, so you have any ideas?

 

Surprised it hasn't been said yet...

Alignment?

 

Also, i know you said the shaking is coming from the front wheels, but you should check this out anyway:

i did alignment couple of days ago....

 

Was it done by a reputable shop? Could be a hair off somewhere and cause issues. I would take it in and have then re check it. Should do it for free.

 

Balance and alignment. Did you align after the install?

 

You are all wrong!!

The same thing happened when I put Skunk2s on my S. It is your axles. The Skunk2s dump the rear end so much that it changes the spot in which the bearings ride the cups on the CVs. During hard acceleration, the bearings are constantly trying to fall back into the pits they have created for the last however many miles prior to being lowered. You need to swap the half shafts or replace the CVs entirely to remedy the problem.... and when you do, YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE how smooth your car will feel.

Do a search on swapping the axles for more info and\or feel free to p.m. me.


Edit: Just noticed that 352s2000 was on the right track.
