My cousin had this in his 97 GT. He never did anything about it and ended up with some major repair. I belive it was a Tie Rod?

So get an alignment, check your tires, all that good stuff before something major happenes.

Alignment, Un-Balanced Wheels, or Tie-Rods.... Get them all checked before it gets worse!

Yeah def sounds like the above. What sucks is if you ride it like that the tires can wear down crazy fast then you got to buy all new tires. But on the bright side comes a fun burnout!!!!

Another option is the belts in your tires. Your tires can be internally seperated, but look fine from the outside!

I wonder if it could be something in the steering rack? I don't have this problem, and hope I don't get it!

The easiest way is to reverse engineer the problem... start at the tires and work your way in. Tires, Wheels, Hub, Brakes, Wheel Bearings, Suspension, Tie Rods, Steering Rack, etc....

see what i dont understand is that this started a lil while back...once i got my springs i had the car aligned...when i took it to the shop they said my tires need to be balanced too so i said sure why not...not sure why they needed to be balanced bc they were fine as far i know...then after that stuff i had a really bad shake at around 62+ and i took it back several times and they kept rebalancing them...eventually i just dealt with it and then i noticed that the inside of my tire had be like shaved off...that is from the odd tire wear b4 the alignment since i did have my springs on there for like a month and a half b4 aligning it...so i got new tires and they put em on and balanced and now i still have a small shake at like 65+...its nowhere near as bad tho...
