How can I keep the tires planted in the corners?

Subject: How can I keep the tires planted in the corners?
by ninetyfivevette on 2008/6/4 21:40:13

What would it take to keep the tires planted to the pavement on uneven surfaces? The front-end skipping all over the place is very unnerving and in some cases has been dangerous. My shocks (QA1), wheel bearings, bushings and other suspension components all seem fine.

What seems to happen is the front-end gets upset, gets light and then the rear end likes to follow. In this case I was aggressively accelerating on to the highway, went over a transition strip that occurs on a banked slight curve, which caused momentary steering loss, followed immediately by the rear kicking out to the right. I've got a few issues going on here, I realize, but this was not an aggressive bump by any stretch. I've had minor cracks in pavement cause this in similar situations, but don't affect other vehicles to anywhere near the same degree.

Where can I start?
