Well my whole front end is NEW with a new aligment! New: 03 cobra a-arms, steering rack, solid rack bushings, MM solid shaft, pump, bumpsteer kit, the only thing not new is my 5 yr old illuminas which i think might be going south (would this cause it)... It still just feels like it want to do what it wants when im driving on the freeway, when I put the A-arms in it felt ALOT tighter but after a week it feels the same as before, my car has ALWAYS done this and it drives me nuts! if it drove nice I would buy a blower next week! My friends 03 cobra drives straight as an arrow with a whacked out aligment!

Tires can do it as well. The Kumho Ecsta Supra tires I used to use would track with every crack in the road. And you know how smooth our roads are here in SoCal. The Ecsta MX I use now are much better.

Agreed with the tire thought. What alignment specs did you go with?

Freeways generally are not rutted up (the divisions are perpendicular to the rolling plane of the tire).

Tires can affect this alot. My old 96 cougar was all over the road when I bought it and felt like it was driving me most of the time. Bought 4 new tires after a random blowout and it was like driving a completely different car...

I have a close/like setup on my mustang right now and wonder what specs to go with? Roads her in MO SUCK (2 worst in nation IIRC behind Detroit).

I have bullitt springs/shocks, 03 cobra A arms, new TRE, stock caster camber plates and run a 9.5 wide rim in front with 275/40/17's.

Should I look at a bullitt align spec or 03 cobra spec if there is any difference? I would think the bullitt and 03 cobra would have different specs from one another and different from the 94's stock specs correct?
