i have a 95 :talon: esi and it has a serious Suspension Problem what it dose is it shifts to one side when hitting different textures of road or when it rains it is really bad and makes it hard to drive over 50 mph on raining days w/o fish tailing so far I've changed the rear knuckles cause i saw the busings was bad thinking it would fix it but of course it didn't :mad: and i have no idea what could cause this. I have had 2 cars do this the other was totaled b4 i fixed it and i also test drove one that had the same problem so it must be pretty common problem on a high mileage DSM.
 
Same problem with my 95 Gst 154k miles. But I think I have an idea of what my problems (s) are.

1. my tires need to be replaced BADLY
2. my rear shocks are shot, I have replacements just havent had time to put em in
3. the hub and bearing for my rear driver side wheel needs to be changed, lots of wiggle in it.
 
well on my last talon i had i put new shocks and had good tires on it and still same problem my hub didnt wobble though.
 
I got the problem fixed now come to find out it was my inner tie rods in all alone makeing the back boot push to one side i took it to a alligment place paid $299 got 2 new tie rods and 4 wheel alligment and it works great now :).
