I am new to this forum, I want to thank everyone for there input before hand.
I have a 2002 trailblazer LTZ I recently purchased that needed some work.
Things I've replaced so far include - both lower ball joints; left outer tie rod; drivers front and passenger rear sway bar links; rear pads and rotors; vvt solenoid.
The issue im having is now the when im driving and give it gas or let off from a hard acceleration I notice the whole truck sway from one side to the other. I did notice that when I had it on the lift on Friday the rear wheels had some play in them from the diff im assuming. not sure If that would be enough for the sway; also I know I need an alignment from doing the tie rod and ball joints haven't gotten around to it.
anyone encounter this issue? or sound like a problem caused by the rear end or alignment.
Also I could only assume that the stock struts and shocks are getting very loose - so im sure that doesn't help.
any input would be greatly appreciated.
