Serious safety question, vibration at 50-60 mph

[Chris Fields]

Hey all, serious question. I'm getting some pretty good vibration coming from the front driver side tire at around 50-60 mph. I bought this car knowing that I would be putting in all new control arms, steering compents, etc.. but I wasn't planning on doing it for another month or so. So, question is... can this cause an ultimate failure in the front suspension or in any of the control links? Has anyone ever seen a complete failure in any of the suspension components? Is it safe to drive or should I stop driving and get the new parts in now? Thanks

It is most likely the thrust arm bushings. I know when I got mine there were so bad that car couldn't go over 50mph.

just floor it from 50 - 65 to get through it as quick as possible lol

well... good news ... i think... suspension components are all tight... just found a huge buldge in right front passenger tire, along with a huge gash in the rubber in that same spot though... that'll cause a vibration... need new tire...

Make sure all the wheels are balanced as well.
