funny feeling in the front end

When I step on the brake I can feel a &quot;knock&quot; in the steering wheel. also happens when I turn could this be the dreaded track bar? or does it sound like something else?<br><br>jason

Re:funny feeling in the front end

My track bar was also ( going bad ). When it broke, yes, broke. Truck hit a culvert, ripped out entire front differential, bent the frame &amp; bent my best friends neck. $10,000 to fix truck. $15,000 to fix friends neck. True story. PLEASE FIX IT.

Re:funny feeling in the front end

I have a mild knock or vibration in the front end also. Usually notice it when braking or when turning at low speeds, especially over bumps or dips.<br><br>My track bar is only a few months old, so I hope that's not it. I've seen the Darin Steering Stabilizer, but I want to figure out if there's anything wrong first.
