    Vibration in corners?

    Lately I've been notacing a vibration either when I let off the gas or get on the gas in the middle of a corner. Mainly on left handers. It's a constant quick shaking like a wheel out of balance. All 4 wheels are balanced though. It does feel like it's coming from the rear of the car.

    If you think its the rear, have you checked (or ever replaced) your: trailing arm bushings, sway bar links or your rear shock mounts (go to the tech section on www.uucmotorwerks.com and there is a cheap effective upgrade for these)? Check your differential mount too.

      none of the bushings have been replaced. There is also a quick shuuder when sticking it in reverse and backing up. I don't have the money to do a full over hual but would like to narrow down just this problem.

          Yes, Brand new center support bearing. The car accelerates nice and smooth, the vibration just happens on left handers when you either let off the gas after flooring it or lightly get on the gas.

            Perhaps a passenger side front wheel bearing going?

                It could be the passenger bearing as I noticed some play in it the other day as I could push and pull the wheel a little.
