so everytime i take my car up past 60-65 mph when i go to brake the whole care tends to shake/vibrate/pulsate and the steering wheel. however i feel nothing in the brake pedal so i dont think it rotors.any ideas?

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!

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...

well see i just went ahead and replaced the lower ball joints on both sides of the front of the car and in the process ****ed up the outer tie rod ends so i replaced them also....however now im still getting this lil creaky door clicking noise whenever i turn the wheel so im going to go ahead and replace the inner tie rod ends in the next week or two. i wanted to go ahead and get an alignment after that but the thing is that i will hopefully have enough money in about a month or two to but the Tokico HP series lowering coil over shock/strut kit all around and will have to align it again so i was trying to hold off till then but looks like ill have to do it soon with all the **** ive messed wit in the front already probably threw the alignment out of wack
