the left side of my car ran over a curb at about 40mph. when i kick my left front wheel, it feels
solid but i hear some vibration whereas the other wheel sound solid. i've checked what i can
with a flash light but nothing obvious is visible. can someone give me some ideas about what
to look for? what's liekly to be busted?

thanks.

 

Does the steering wheel vibrate at all? Also, is the steering wheel crooked (your going staright but the steering wheel is at an angle).

 

actually, the steering wheel vibrates when i brake now at mid/high speeds. it doesn't rotate back and forth but bounces instead.

 

If the steering wheel vibrates during braking its an indication that the rotors may be warped. Get some slotted Brembos (if the old ones are warped.)

 

one more thing to check...pull the side of the car up on a jack and try to whiggle the wheel...if it moves, you gotta look at the tie rod...

 

"could be" but most warped rotors i've experienced did not make the steering wheel bounce.
