Ok I’m new here and not sure if I’m posting in the right spot but I’m totally at my wits end rn. I have a 1998 Chevy k1500 factory suspension. I’ve replaced idler arm, idler arm bracket and pitman arm is September of 2022. About a month ago I went ahead and replaced upper control arms with bushings and upper ball joints, inner and outer tie rod ends, lower ball joints and wheel hub assembly on both sides of truck. When I went to get an alignment after replacing parts one local tire shop said I had slack in the front end. I told them to just lower my truck off the lift because I didn’t believe them. (I’m by no means a front end specialist but I know what front end slack is and heck I just replaced all them parts new). Well the other local tire shop said they didn’t see any slack and did the alignment. Now here is where I’m confused, when I hit bumps or dips in the road the front of my driver side tire moves left to right extremely fast. Almost like you’re turning left to right as fast as you can. I immediately go home and check the front end. To my surprise everything is tight as can be. Can someone please shed some insight on this. I’m at a total loss of words. Thanks to all that shed some insight on this!!
