quote 2879MacDougall:

I have 205/45/16 Toyos front and back on 16″ Panasport wheels.

Man that is A LOT of tire and wheel weight for the front end. Your front suspension was designed for 5.60-13 on very light 13" steel rims. That may be your problem.

That Toyo tire is ~22 lbs.

The original 5.60-13 (I have one in the garage) tire weight is – 15 lbs.

Now figure out the weight difference between the steel 13" and your Panasport 16"

You have at least 8 lbs more rotating weight per wheel up front.
