Over steer on right turns

[632 Regal]

Over steer on right turns after 55mph. Had a rear tire repaired and figured a pressure issue, nothing big but corrected a couple ponds of air. No unusual tire wear or strange noises either. I have not got it in the air yet but does anyone have a clue?

My guess is the dog bones but not sure what they even do back there. I replaced them a year or 2 ago with FCP (****ing crappy parts) and they looked like **** in weeks, this is why I think they are suspect. Shocks seem fine as do the sway bars and links but... have not phisically looked at them yet.

Any clues greatly appreciated!!

TIA

Most likely is the rear pitman arm problem. Same deal over here... I got to swap them out with Lemforders asap.

Pitman arm = dogbones?

Makes brutal sense to me.

Yep on dogbone.

There is one other possibility... bad shock absorber... when rear shock absorber go bad, upon making a right turn on wet or icy road, the rear end will slide out... oversteering.

Bounce test for shock absorber doesn't tell you anything anymore on modern cars. You have to physically remove the shock absorber, remove the spring and check the action of the shock absorber shaft...

RTABs, subframe mounts, although unlikely could also be a suspect.

I have some famous Hamburg Tech Dogbones in my 525 and they seem to be ok after three years... Cheap and easy to replace... 10 minutes with a rattle gun.

I bought my Hamburg Tech based on you (I think)... garbage in a couple of months.

Rockauto has Moog Rear Pitman Arm for $30.79 each... cool deal.

Not on me.... I would have told that they are crap, and wouldn,t last... I only used them because they were silly cheap ($30 for both) and an easy part to replace.

I meant that someone on the forum mentioned about being okay.. and yes it was cheap... but not good. It is possible on my car that the subframe bushing might be the reason it is no good.
