Got a new (well sort of) 59 TR3A. 35K orig miles. Between 45 and 55 mph it
shimmys so much I expect the already cracked steering wheel to come off in
my hands. It will soon go to the shop, but I'm wondering what advice I can
get on the key weak points in the front end. It's tempting to just swap it
all out, but the car really only has 35K. Any suggestions for a logical
order to attack this problem will be appreciated. I plan to lube the front
and check the wheels tomorrow. My mechanic is suspicious of the steering
box, but I think this may be looking too far. Also, any advice on good
shops in the Boulder CO area would help.
