    damn shaking steering wheel

    I don't know why this is happening but it seems to be getting worse.....my steering wheel shakes back and forth, it seemed to start happening when my brake master cylinder went out. I replaced that and can't figure out why it is doing it! Could it be the brakes, bushings? Please help

    It could be several things. Does it shake all the time? Low speeds? High speeds? When the brakes are applied?

    Warped brake rotors.
    Tire(s) out of balance.
    Front end alignment.
    Worn steeing components.

    Those are a few for starters.

    Check your tires man, Usually that is the problem in most cases.

    well it seems to be worse during the day...braking doesn't effect it, seems to be happening at different speeds (not as bad faster). From all my experiences balancing will be a verticle shaking, this is horizontal. And it is pissing me off lol. I also noticed it does it while turning too. It's like something is bent or out of whack?
