Zook Swaying with crosswinds.

[josh9465]

does anyone get severe swaying from either crosswinds or going through a puddle of water on one side of the car.

steering dampner is new.

With the winds up your way at the moment i think u will be having a few more swaying.

Corsswinds is mostly due to the superb aerodynamics of the sierra (eg a loaf of bread) and puddle is friction u guess as it is pulling u in.

You can have reactions from potholes and that and these could be due to lift (camber,caster,bump steer)

I dont worrie about cross winds, as my zook wonders across the road with out any wind.
Head winds are the biggest problem. the zook just about stops at times.
And how come I never get a tail wind ?

All normal...

i used to have a hell of a job staying in one lane coming home from North Pine Dam before Carseldine.

They seem to be worse that soft tops.

i dunno mines pretty bad lol. id say a shopping trolly would sway less than mine and i still got my sway bars on * imbarased*

dont worry even my vitara gets blown around heaps, had some interesting times on the open road recently, its amazing how much i was affected by trucks and buses. i dont reckon the soft tops are much better as my mates 95 WT sierra softie was like a kite in the wind you could almost "sail" it some days it was that bad. i had a tail wind coming home at one stage i reckon it was worth 5 kph atleast.

3 Big Mac's,
2 Woppers (with cheese),
5 Litres Coca Cola
1 pack of Arnotts "Tic Toc's"
a few mars bars.
Take this once a week for 12 months.
Problem solved, it worked for me (and cristover )

so the bigger the beer belly the less sway in the wind.

You could take the doors off so the wind passes through.
Answer to your question, Yes. We all get knocked about by the wind.
