Re: Shimmy especially when turning left?

["Brian Haygood" <Scirious@hotmail.com>]

Check that the bolt holding tension on that wheel bearing is still tight.
These things don't do well on three wheels.

Also check suspension bushings.  If one fell out or is totally trashed it
could cause something like this.

Bad CV's classically get noisy, and this just doesn't sound to me like a CV
thing.

Me giving advice to Daun.  What's wrong with this picture?????
