just kidding -did the 750 bushing and thrust arm upgrade-only took about 40 minutes to do the whole job-nearly eliminated all but a little bit of the 55 mph shimmy shimmy kokopop -any ideas now to finish her off

My suggestion would be to check the balance of the wheels. I went from winter to summer wheels and along with it came a slight shimmy.... whereas there was nothing prior to the wheel swap. imho

40 minutes- must be a record. Can you tell us the technique? I am going to do this very soon.

definetly check wheel balance and for any other steering play.

Took me about that long to unpack the box and make sure all the parts were right.
