the slaab has an odd vibration that can be felt in the steering wheel and stick, but it only happens when there is no load. foot on gas = smooth foot on brake = smooth cruising = vibration ball joints seem fine, as well as the outter tie rod ends. i do know that one of my sway bar end links is fuct, but i wouldnt think that would cause this issue. tires have been ballanced. it does it with both sets of wheels i have… so i dont think thats the issue my guess right now is worn cv joint. anyone have any other ideas? ---

“Have you been getting any front end vibration, especially when letting off the throttle after accelerating up to 50 + mph? The tripods inside do wear usually causing noise first and then unwanted vibrations. The companion flange and inner universal joint are expensive new. If you need to replace anything, eeuroparts sells a rebuilt halfshaft for $89.00 + $50.00 core charge. But you may also require other parts.” a quote from saabcentral… guess this is a common issue f u guys, i didnt want your help anyways ---

heh…I had the SAME symptoms on my Alero a few months ago (when I still had my snows on). Turns out somebody tried jacking my rims (STEELIES!!!) and said “aww fuck it, just loosen the lugnuts.” glad your problem is a relatively cheap fix. ---
