This may be totally insane, but if the front swaybar bushings and endlinks are over torqued, alot, will it cause the front end and steering wheel to vibrate excessively??

Since I had my 1LE swaybar installed, I've been getting a terrible vibration from the front end and I'm pretty sure my friend over torqued the bolts for the bushings and endlinks. The vibration usually becomes noticeable at approx. 50-55mph, and worsens as the speed increases. I thought it was my wheels that needed to be balanced, but I had them balanced twice now with no improvement. I had the car aligned a few weeks prior to installing the swaybar, so its not alignment (at least I don't think).

Any help guys??

I would have the car aligned again with the new sway bar. I will be installing my 1LE sway bars soon so I am curious as to why you are getting this vibration. Those bolts for the end links look kind of small- any serious over torquing would snap them, no? Good luck. Let me know how you made out.

P.S. recently I had a serious vibration coming from my front end. Took me about a month to solve it after I found a siezed caliper sliding pin in my right front. I had the wheels balanced at least twice and had the alignment checked as well.

Thanks Mod. I just chenged my rotros amd pads so it's not a seized pin. I'll unbolt the swaybar and reconnect it and make sure it gets torqued properly then I'll take it to get realigned. Hopefully it solves the problem because I can't stand the vibration when I'm making my trip back and forth to my shore house.

Yeah, that's the last thing you need during a trip to the Jersey Shore. The GSP has nice smooth surfaces for some nice WOT runs! I hope you can get it solved soon! A buddy of mine lives off of exit 77 (i think) in Bayville NJ. Maybee I'll see ya out there! Good luck.
