teeSubject: Excess sway
Posted on:

I have tremendous sway high in the rear end of my 85k 2000
Mustang.  All I read says it's shocks, three guys tell me
it's not.  I'm getting nauseous (literally), the sway is so
bad.  I have new tires (3 days old), new brakes all the way
around (2 months old), so these aren't the issue.  No
alignment or steering problems either.  Could 3 guys be
totally wrong?  Internet tells me I have a classic case of
worn shocks.  Should they be worn (or all leaked out) at
six years?  Any help or education is muchly appreciated; I
almost puked in my car last week on the way home. 
Honestly.  I have cloth upholstery.  Very bad.

Go behind the car and bounce it. If it continues to bounce,
you have bad shocks. It shouldn't bounce more than once.
