The front side of the car car slipped off the jack stand and then the steering wheel started to be shaking or vibrating. Here are the things that I did to find the fix:
1. I changed front rotors เปลี่ยนจานดิสแบรค
2. I changed front struts เปลี่ยนโชคอัพ
3. I change right front axle เป็นเพลาขับ
4. I changed the inner tie rods เปลี่ยนลูกหมากด้านใน
About $200
For balancing, I use tape measure to measure the gaps between the front wheels. The gaps are at the front of the wheels, and the back of the wheels. I measure right on one of the lines on the surface of the tires and also on the inside cheeks of the tires. I drive around and come back to measure and see if the gaps are the same. Then I adjust the tie rod if they aren't. I would do this for like 10 times.. just to make sure.
It amazingly feels better after changing the inner tie rods. However, there is still a very little vibration during 60 mph. THE REAL CAUSE is the WHEELS AND TIRES. They are out of balance or warned out or too old.
---
For the sockets and stuff I would suggest you to buy the whole set. Same thing with the wrenches, get the set.
Only two special socket and one big wrench for them that you need to buy.
+19mm or 3/4" socket (1/2" drive)
+31.75 - 32mm or 1-1/4" Socket (1/2" drive)
+Big wrench (1/2" drive) 3:45 a "17-Inch Breaker Bar with a Flex Head".
The pipe, you can just walk in the store and try on like this 3:49
Other tools:
+5" C clamp
+Vise-Grip Curved Jaw Locking Pliers
+1 pair of 10"(or above) Coil Spring Compressor
+Inner Tie Rod Remover/Installer Tool
+a big(or small) metal(or brass) hammer
+zip-ties

Your video is refreshingly to the point at every phase of your repairs. No wasted footage, but concisely to the point. Excellent work!

[@Albertischillin]

You the real MVP, even though u bought a lot of unnecessary parts, you still solved your owned problem! Good job

[@DarkDragonWing]

Albert David Thank you! cheers

[@SamsTechTips]

The way you edit is great, short, but extremely effective.

[@big4g63t]

Exactly the way I want to watch an informative automotive video, thanks!

[@bryan1282]

I hope this dude keeps these vids up here, my lancer is needing EVERYTHING replaced almost 200,000 miles and other then preventative maintenance and a few alternators and batteries it’s all original and it’s all crapping out same time.

[@FranklinHicks-qs4gs]

6 things replaced , 6 trips for tools and parts. finally a REAL mechanic video

[@TheDilan84]

I really like the cleaning habit before you replace any item.

[@juangallegos72386]

I had the problem with steering wheel shaking at about70mph and finally found the issue. I had a wheel alignment and tire balance. Then recently found out I had a bent rim in one of my front tires. I bought my rims off Craigslist so now I'm just buy a replacement per rim for my 2011 Mustang. I switched that front rim to the back away from my sensors which kept going off because of the tire shake. And now it's not even noticeable. Since I put the tire in the rear. But I will still replace the wheel. The shaking had dropped several weights on my wheel balance and I redid the wheel balance. Now it is beast. Check your tires and rims too people

[@insanemidgetmadness]

DUDE, YOU FIGURED IT OUT, MY 1999 GRAND PRIX GTP ROLLS FLAWLESSLY ONCE MORE!!! GREAT JOB

[@Jazzmanden]

Was trying to find instruction for wheel wobble, then I found a complete front suspension tutorial. Thx, great video :)

[@JoseDuran-qj8ei]

I really enjoyed your HARDWORK, Enthusiasm and Determination towards fixing that shake!! Great job and excellent presentation !!

[@DarkDragonWing]

thanks, cheers!

[@kataklizmik0]

WAAOO!! This has been THE BEST CAR MECHANICS video that I have seen. It was cool, Funny, straight to the point in every stage of the fix. And you actually showed everything you went through, while trying to fix the problem until it was actually fixed. Very rare seeing such a meticulous all-in-one video project. You deserve and should get a KZbin award for such an amazing video.

[@thornjanick1527]

Cu do's to ya , for going the extra mile and cleaning everything and painting ! There is not one mechanic that I know that would do that !! So Good Job !! And one more Hats off to you for keeping such a good attitude during all the repairs !!! Way to go !!!

[@jineeshm.n8748]

you are very hardworking.... well done brother :)

[@justicebolton4844]

I currently have the same problem only because the mechanic that just replace my front struts. Which needed replacing struck both my outer tie rods with hammer accidentally bursting the boots. And now everytime I hit 60mph front shakes. Just ordered two outer tie rods. I had to like this video for his perseverance and hard work. Plus he is the most average and relatable Joe I ever seen work on a vehicle with regular tools. He is inspiring for it do evident like most of us he not a mechanic yet, fierce as can be to achieve his objective. Just going to need an alignment next.

[@emmanuelluci7240]

hi maki... thank you very much for your video they help me for basics & actual repair. more blessing & god bless...

[@justmetal227]

Hey man, if you can see this here, your videos have a lot of helpful info and I am learning a lot from all your work!!! thanks for sharing!!!

[@DarkDragonWing]

Thanks! Glad to hear back!

[@DarkDragonWing]

Yess! I had it aligned at a local shop. Thank you!

[@josephmak5842]

dang, this guys really into the fine details like rustproofing the metal and treating the strut boots..something i"d be doing

[@DarkDragonWing]

I know right? I thought about giving up fixing this car too, but I came this far so I thought I don't really have anything to loose. Besides, I finally fixed it. The wobbling is gone since I got new rims and tires on.

[@HorgretorGellantara]

Nice job, very good and very detailed. You almost made me fall from my chair when you broke that wrench

[@DarkDragonWing]

:D cheers

[@elgoofy4]

It reminds me of me working on my car wen I was like 20 this is the best way to learn

[@matthewyang6550]

WOW u haven't give up bro keep up the good work man

[@DarkDragonWing]

I used to work as a mechanic back when I was in Thailand. Oh and just click the Like button again, that will do it.

[@Zzzenpie]

I got some mad respect for the work you put in, Great video!

[@DarkDragonWing]

Haha If I can afford Subaru, I would have gotten an EVO. X) It was only $3,000. A 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX cost $10,995 with 178083 mi on it. Hmm.... oO 1. It's got about 160,000+ miles on it. 150,000+ when I got it. 2. It's in Minnesota, we got snow every year and we use salt a lot. (Salt is bad for metal) 3. I drive like I play Need For Speed. LOL Gotta mention this. 4. This is how I call it "MY CAR." I work on it. :D Thanks for commenting!

[@DarkDragonWing]

Thank you. And oh no, I fixed it. The main reason why the car shakes at the first place is the front wheels and tires. They were getting old and stuff, so they don't spin nicely which causes vibration. And that causes other part to fail also such as inner- tie-rods. . See: Lancer Fix | Shaking While Driving 60 mph (Full Fix) - Ep.13

[@ltralph001]

Ur 22 and u already have the knowledge of fixing a car.. Damn. Im 25 and i know half the things u know. Keep it up. Maybe next time you can build a car from the ground up.

[@DarkDragonWing]

Raphael Guerrero Thanks! Yes, someday I might be doing that.

[@ltralph001]

[@DarkDragonWing]

Yes, I definitely should. I'm learning to do the default ways. I kind of use the old way.

[@mizlove6402]

My Car does the exact same thing when I hit 60. Its a Volkswagen Passat 99. Man dude you went to work. I wish I knew that much about cars, and sadly the parts for my car are extremely expensive. Great video though. Puts some things in perspective on what I need to do.

[@DarkDragonWing]

Glad it helped. cheers

[@JamesAutoDude]

Damn dude. You're like, better then a pro! Great job!!

[@DarkDragonWing]

Thank you!

[@gutrali]

great editing. you could tell a lot of work went into that. much more interesting

[@DarkDragonWing]

thank you, cheers!

[@Sroor2023]

Nice you cover everything about shaking except engine mounts :)

[@bryan1282]

Sroor9001 usually the wheel won’t shake but the body will if it’s the mounts.

[@mrcokez1]

$20 says its the rear engine mount.

[@DdgeShelby]

@@mrcokez1 rear engine mount is just a torque mount same as the front radiator support mount The load bearing engine mounts are the driver and passengers side. If the trans mount fails, that could drop the back edge of the engine causing some load on the axles.

[@arturomechato2268]

your videos are very very very good, thank you

[@DarkDragonWing]

[@DarkDragonWing]

Thanks! cheers

[@DarkDragonWing]

Thanks!

[@jordanochristopho]

He broke more tools in 2 days that i do in a year! Good work though! Keep it up :)

[@MC-pg5wk]

Great video/s of DIY repairs. Yes there are people who will find flaws and point them out, but it's important to understand that this is to give general guidance to those who have the skills, tools and capacity to undertake thier own repairs, so this is a great guide. I have a cj lancer that creeks and vibrates at the steering wheel. I to have changed rotors, bushes, suspension and no luck. But having watched your videos I'll need to change one more thing. If that doesn't fix it...I am at a loss! Great videos though, well done.

[@Sorshaaaa]

After changing everything I have replaced the car :) Great video brother :)

[@dungeonsdragons1900]

Great video!!!!!

[@559powerscape]

Lol i love you editing man reminds me of shaun of the dead director edgar wright

[@KIKASS187]

I had too laugh at some of the tools that broke and also laugh at how you were straining to take off some of the nuts and bolts,I swear I saw a shit stain mark on the back of your shorts lol. Looked abit dangerous though when changing the struts,but you put alot hard work and effort into putting on your new rotors,struts and tie rods good on you buddy nice job!!! Awesome!!!

[@DarkDragonWing]

+kikass187 lol Thanks a lot. cheers

[@MrSpanosal]

super super!!! bravo!!!

[@DarkDragonWing]

[@user-bz1tn1ui1w]

[@eelj091477]

[@jbb49]

[@cisco1999]

Your very good. Thanks for uploading videos. Very informative. Keep it up!

[@DarkDragonWing]

+Francis David Cheers!

[@DarkDragonWing]

:D Well, I don't know about that. With all 8 episodes of Lancer Fix together, I haven't spent over $900 yet(cheapest parts on eBay + free installations by me). But yes, I can buy a running car with that money, but I love my car! lol I took my car to the shop once, they said it would cost me $1300 just to change brake shoes/dishes/drums for all wheels and front struts. They didn't even mention "inner tie rods."

[@mmmmmech]

Nice video very helpful

[@almackie6104]

I like the editing

[@DarkDragonWing]

Definitely

[@feridselimov7503]
