I recently got a strut tower brace, some rear suspension parts like LCAs and then aligned the car. Now my front end doesn't feel quite right. It felt a little "loose" before the new parts, but I think the STB is amplifying the feeling. It's hard to describe..it feels like the front is on a knife edge and wants to go to the right or the left, but not really sit in the center if that makes sense. I end up pulling against it after a curve to the right or left. Anyway, with the original parts in the front, what typically needs replacing as the miles rack up and does this sound familiar to anyone? Thanks all.

That and also your new suspension may be new to the feel, so prob both are the reason.

But i bet the alignment place just set the TOE on the car. An old sayin is "Set the TOE and let it go down the road" I would see if you can set the camber, and other ****. Make sure all nuts are tightend.

Also your new suspenion is prob reacting like it should on the edge of a knife, not lazy with rubber stocker peices.

 

Myself and many others will agree that the stock camber settings are too much on the + side. At the stock settings you'll find that the tires will wear out prematurely on the outer edges. Next time you take your car in for an alignment make sure you specify as much negative camber as possible. There are a few others on hee that can also elaborate on this.
