Frount end shimmy

[1sicpig]

I went to Vegas last weekend, about 400 miles round trip, in the 41' found out that at about 60 mph the frount end shimmed. Getting ready for the trip I had the wheels balanced to avoid such difficulties. The car is stock, I have replaced the kingpins is all. What or where should I look next to solve this symptom.

Re: Front end shimmy

Check your toe-in. If it is not close to right on, it may cause shimmy. Good luck.
