I got rid of the shimmy buy doing 2 things.
I replaced the front Rotors., I had the old set turned and they lasted 3
weeks then the shimmy was back. SO I got a good set off a junkyard car.
I also put a 2nd set of the big washers on the front arm that connects up
under the radiator brace. The rubber bushings there are a bit worn, so when
I brake hard the front suspension moved back a bit. By adding a 2nd set of
washers off a parts car it lessened the travel amount
hope this helps
