Late last summer driving my Camaro I noticed it was starting to feel a little loose I guess on the corners and curves. I've taken it easy since then and so far this spring it still feels that way. When I take a mild curve on the highway or road the weight really shifts to the outside. I don't remember it being this way in the past. I don't feel comfortable going into a curve anymore and I should. The car feels like its leaning instead of staying tucked and low like it used to. I'm thinking maybe the struts/shocks are bad, anybody else have any ideas?

It could be that it could also be a broken sway bar link.Western Michigan Camaro Club ~ President

Yeah, probably, but I can't imagine those weakening enough to make the car feel different.Comment

yeah make sure the bushings are ACTUALLY there. I went to change the brakes on my car, and the passenger side bushing was 100% missing, nothing was there. Just the sway bar chillin a few inches above where it was supposed to be bolted down. On the driver's side, the sway bar was rusted to where it bolts down, but when I felt the bolt for the bushing, it was literally just resting in the hole, the middle of the bolt was corroded straight through.- Brian Meissen
