MCGLSR2 - great advice that I will be revisiting!I had a little time today to do some more diagnostic evaluation. There is a pretty horrible right/left situation... the car shakes. Initially, I thought it was in the rear end... so we jacked up the back and did some investigating. The rear end seems to be firm with no signs of anything that would cause this... So, we jacked up the front end - passenger side was fine - no real play or nothing. Moving to the driver's side exposed the problem. It appears the previous owners did not keep the air in the front tire appropriate and it has some pretty sever cupping. That has caused the wheel bearings to fail, allowing for a side to side movement when there should be none. The good news? $100 worth of parts and I can have both sides fixed. At that point, I can further evaluate failed components.My new plan is to find the failed components only and replace them as needed. That way, I keep my overall cost for parts that are eventually getting upgraded/replaced to a minimum.Ordered new tires today too - Kumho Ecsta AST's... Rufus</blockquote>
