I've fixed the front wheels and balanced them but not the rears.....might get back wheels balanced and check the suspension this weekend for loose connections/bolts etc...

If a good tire shop can't figure out your problem go to a truck repair shop and have tires spun on the car.

Are there key pieces of suspension components that I can replace without doing the whole thing?

I've fixed the front wheels and balanced them but not the rears.....might get back wheels balanced and check the suspension this weekend for loose connections/bolts etc...
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Have a 2001 C2 6 speed. Have just replaced front shocks, rotors and have made sure wheels aren't damaged. When I hit 90-110mph I get a wobble at steering wheel. I'm assuming I need to refresh the rest of the front suspension but I'm operating on a budget. Are there key pieces of suspension components that I can replace without doing the whole thing? I'd like to do the work myself if possible.
In my experience, a high speed steering wheel vibration/wobble is one of, or more, tires. Bad tire belts, bad balance, out of round tire etc, can and do cause high speed steering wheel wobble/vibration. You can balance a block of wood but can't drive on it.
A bent wheel usually wobbles steering wheel starting at under/at 25mph, out of balance/bad tire/belts, starts at/over 55mph.
If a good tire shop can't figure out your problem go to a truck repair shop and have tires spun on the car. That will show you quickly where the problem is....

Yeah, it was worse. Gotten better with shocks and rotors being replaced at Rennsport. I've fixed the front wheels and balanced them but not the rears.....might get back wheels balanced and check the suspension this weekend for loose connections/bolts etc...
The other thing that's weird is the car pulls to the right. I just had the shocks and rotors done, including alignment. I know there's road tilt to the right side generally but this is more than that. That's part of the reason I was thinking the steering wheel wobble might be caused by suspension components/control arms etc.....
The more camber you have, the more the front wheels will track every nook and cranny on the roads. Not to mention road camber. Add in alignment that may not be right, and you have a squirely front end.
I bet the rear eccentric bolt slipped and the toe is out in one side. This will make the steering wheel off center. Hopefully the alignmnet guy paint marked the washer so u can do a quick check.
Do u have your alignmmet sheet?
Bought new rear tires and had them balanced. Bought the tires because the inside of the tire was smooth and showing secondary rubber. Dangerous....which also means the rear camber must be off, considering the wear pattern. Another thing to sort....Good news the steering wheel wobble is gone. Hit 115mph on the way to work, smooth all the way through 90 to 115mph. Wobble used to show up around 90-95. The tires were 1 year old but don't think the wheels were balanced.
