My stang handles alittle bit better

marcuslee842 · August 18th, 2005, 06:21 PM

I took a my '99 gt to the shop Tuesday night because there was squeaking in my front wheel whenever I turned the steering wheel. It was ready Wednesday morning. The mechanic said that I had a bent steering rod, so they replaced them with some new ones. I guess it must have been bent when I bought it because it responds much better now and it dosen't feel as loose as it did when I go over something rough. I just thout that I would share because I hear a lot of people have sqeaking from the front of their mustangs.

Huh, I don't know the SOB told me it was the steering rods! Maybe he meant tie rods.

Usually the squeeking in the front end of Mustangs are tie rod ends, struts, or ball joints. Good to hear it responds much better now.
