Ok, I have a question if anyone has the time to answer me. Since I've purchased my vehicle, I have had this recovery issue with the vehicle. At speeds up to 55mph, it feels like any other SUV. When I hit the freeway however, the vehicle doesn't seem to recover quite right when I hit a major dip at speeds of 65mph+. It does it going straight or at a curve. It doesn't bottom out or anything, but it is as if one side wants to keep bouncing a little longer (but not like a bad shock bounce) while the other side stabilizes. I've been told shocks, tires, among other things. I've replaced them all. After I bought new shocks and tires, I was told 'no, you must have bought bad shocks'. So I bought another pair of shocks, with the same effect although slightly lessened as I would expect anyway from a new pair of shocks. That's a total of three sets of shocks with the same symptom. I've always said that I thought it was in the springs. I read your article about the effects of torsion bar adjustments. Could this be something as simple as a torsion bar adjustment? Could it be that the torsion bars are not set evenly? The problem is completely in the front end. A mechanic checked out the front end and said that everything was solid, so I've ruled out ball joints, idler arms etc. (had them replaced anyway just in case)
