I have not replaced the balljoints, shocks, or struts. When I am on the highway and go over a bump or seam in the highway, etc, the rear of the car sways incredibly. Very unlike the other 2 900s Ive had.
I dont think mine's could be explained by bad shocks, etc. I think that actually the rear axle is bent so that the tires are not aimed corretly and when I get any lift in the air with one or the other wheel, it swings the car. I have heard that it is not unheard of for previous owners to have had the car jacked up on the center of the rear axle, which on these cars will bend it and screw up the rear alignment. Perhaps there is a way to have the rear alignment checked. bodyshop, etc. I'm sure your problem is more simple than the one on my car. Good luck.
Rob
