Recently I replaced both struts and lower balljoints.


The problem I have now is that when you crank the steering wheel hard left or right it appears that the axles are binding, feels like when you have a 4x4 locked in when on dry pavement when turning, tire skid. I know I do not have the camber dead on but real close. I called a buick dealer and he thought maybe I had seperated the half shaft and did not get it reseated. He asked me if I had a vibration around 50 and up. I replied sometimes, depends on what road I'm on. My question is if the LH half shaft, inner or outer joints, has slid apart slightlly how do I reseat them. Would loosening the outer shaft nut and tapping on it reseat the shaft joints ? Another thought is when I reset the camber and moving the strut maybe I have caused this binding ? Anyway, any thoughts would be appreciated.
