Hey Doc - not sure what you're looking for, but my car is all over the road. Especially when it's windy, or when there are ridges in the road...it's just wanders all over. Seems to be not as bad on the freeway. I'm pretty sure it's the steering box, but won't know for sure until I start prepping for the paint job...then I'll pull it out and tear it apart and see if I can figure it out. I tried adjusting it a while back, but I think I made it worse.

Rich, this thread entry was a mis-hap on my part. The real thread has been redone.
Well it could be alignment, a bad front tire(yes, even if the tire is new). And it could be the idler arm bushings are bad but I believe you re-did your front-end?
