What is causing the vehicle to sway at times while driving?

I have a 98 infinite qx4 (from what I was told its just like a pathfinder) that was swaying/rocking. I changed the whole front end and some of the back. I even got different tires, but the whole time it was the bushings. If you're able to move the Controll arms side to side that's a bad sign. The arms should be firm.


What is causing the clunking noise in your ford focus when you are driving?

Common problem with these 2000-04 fords, there is a sway bar link (approximately 12" long) which attaches the front strut to the sway bar mounted on the cars underside. The link ends wear and cause a "sloppy" connection between the two points. This is then herd while driving and hitting potholes as a "clunk". Just replace the sway bar link and everything will be fine!


1998 pathfinder that rocks side to side at speeds of 55mph or more you replaced the struts and you still have the same problem?

Check the front sway bar and sway bar end links. I suspect one of the sway bar end links is broken. Auto parts stores carry the replacement link kits and are easy to replace.

If it's at high speed it could be alignment, loose steering components, bad tires, bad rear sway bar or overloaded in the rear of the truck bed. If it's at low speed it could be a bent wheel or slipped belt on one of the tires.
