I recently purchased an 07 California Special convertable v-8 5 speed with 1500 miles on it. I love the car, but its handling in the corners is not great. in corners if feels like the *** end is loose or floating, this feeling is even more noticeable if the corner has any bumps in it at all. What if anything could be done to eliminate this ? any and all help is appreciated. The car is more or less a daily driver, we never plan to run it on a track, just weekend drives.

 

There are a few items that will improve overall stability and rear end traction.

1. shocks & struts
2. rear control arms (lower arms and upper 3rd link)
3. rear urethane panhard bar / panhard support

Those I'd put as my top 3 mods to do. The control arms will probably make the most noticeable difference with the exact problem you're experiencing.

Sincerely,
