Well prior to replacing my shocks/struts (about 40k ago) the car could never get into perfect alignment. Once I replaced them it was improved but I have noticed recently that I have been having some issues with vibration at highway speeds. I ruled out brakes (I replaced them recently, worn. I also bedded them properly and they work great) but I still have the slight vibration at highway. I know that proper ride height can make a difference with alignment and thought it might be that. The back looks OK and I have never had alignment issues there but I was wondering if I replace the front and get an alignment if that will cure it (barring a suspension item I might not have caught that is broken.)
^this,
and when you go from 100k mi coils to new your ride and handling is a 100% improvement this and the above quoted post makes your vehicle safer.
TO the OP, I would research the spring setup and make sure you do not have coil spring isolators on the top and bottom of your springs, these are usually some type of rubber and wear and compress as-well, creating sag.
Cool, so should I bother to replace the rears as well or just the front which seems to be causing my issues?
