my shocks and struts are shot in the rear so the car handles too tight IMO the stang is too light to handle like a floater. when i go over bumps it feels like the cars getting air and landing hard

THank you all

bad karma, I'll shake the mustang down tomarrow.

I took the car out tonight and didnt like the ride.

When i go over a big bump, everything rattles/crashes sound

I have to turn the wheel a little to make it go straight. If i have the wheel straight, it goes to the left. However when I turn the wheel a little, the mustang will go straight okay, it does not pull to one side (I dont have to constantly "correct" the steering to drive straight)

And the front end seems to have a "shimmy" to it.

I'll check the tire pressure in everything when I take it out tomarrow.

What Tire PSI do you all run?

How do you keep the hood from Crashing down onto the front bumper when you go over bumps?

(I had problems do the computer self test, see related post)
Good news is Vacumn is strong 18 in hg and 42psi oil pressure at hot idle
