I have already priced around for this steering shock(dampner). The partsshop wants $28 for it. I will be looking into the rear suspension. When I bought the car back in October, I knew it needed some work, so it's just a matter of prioritizing the projects. The first thing I did when I got the car was change all the fluids and filters. The next 3 things I need to give my attention to are this sloppy steering, rear sway bar, and replacing the rear springs, which are tired. The back end is sitting a little low.
