Check your steering damper. It is important that this be in good condition.
VW's were known for shimmy, that is why they installed the damper. Also
check the bushing where it connects to the drop arm off the steering box. I
know that mine is bad. BTW, does anyone know where you can get that bushing,
and and the steering damper?????
