hi, everyone. This is my first post. I really need help. When I'm driving my nice 06 mustang gt the front end sounds like . lol When i go over speed bumps, potholes and cracks my passenger side tire sounds like its hitting harder the the rest of the car. I've taken my car to two different pepboys and they recommended new struts and shocks because 82000 miles. I even pointed out the busted rubber around the outter tie rods on both the driver and passenger side and pepboys said the rods are fine that everything is tight and snug. So, i take my car to vannoys and they said i need new struts ball joints and tie rods which comes to $1100. I'm worried that fixing all this and it still make the noise and im worried all that doesnt need replacing. My only complaint is that thudding noise other then that my car drives newest other then pulling a lil here and there but not much. What should
I do?


When I go over a hundred my front end feels loose, to the point where I have to slow down. like im going to loose controll.

take it to a good place not crap boys...it's possible the tie rod ends are bad. first you are just dumb to be driving 100 on a bad T/R or ball joint...one goes bad at 100 and you'll make the news as DOA.. if the boot is tore than the gease is gone most likely...1100 is just way off base. are you mechanical inclined?

There is no way on earth you should be driving that fast. Something makes me think this is not a legitimate post.
