Tires are brand new and were balanced....not the problem. Also, the vibration over 70mph doesn't occur constantly and all the time. While driving over 70mph...
Understand Mike... I guess I will have to remedy the problem (and find the solution if there is one) myself. Doubt the front bushings will help...my car drives...
