[DML] wobbly steering wheel

[Soma576@xxxxxxx]

Hey group,
 
A couple weeks ago I posted saying that my steering wheel turns back and  
forth a few degrees while braking, indicating possibly warped rotors.   Today I 
took the rotors off and wanted to get them turned.  Too bad they  are already 
at minimum thickness... guess I'll have to order some new rotors  up.  On the 
other hand, after I reassembled everything, the wheel shimmy  went away.  The 
shop manual says to torque the calipers to 55 lbs, and I am  positive they were 
quite a bit below that when I removed them, so perhaps that  was the cause?  
Just in case anyone else has a similar problem.
