Steering shake after H Brace install
Hi all, I recently installed a H brace on my 98 GC8 and apart from the awesome decrease in understeer it also makes my steering wheel shudder when turning. Anyone else have this happen? It's really annoying me. Before hand i had a professional 4 wheel alignment from John at Wheels World so it shouldnt be out of alignment.
Thanks for your time. |

are any of the steering components hitting the H-brace when you turn the wheel...

Just went out and got girlfriend to turn steering wheel lock to lock and it's not hitting anything. Maybe I just need another wheel alignment?

could be that the H brace has made the vehicle more rigid (as it is designed to do) so therefore the steering is now a bit out of whack. Sorry I can't be of more help

Does your dump pipe touch the H-brace? Engine vibrations can transmit into the chassis

Yup and thus shaking through the body when turning

Will re tighten the bolts and test drive again. I'm quite sure the dump pipe
Isn't touching but will have a closer look when I put it on jack stands. Thanks for all the help. |
