I have a 1987 Suzuki Samurai JX, and whenever I go around 35 to 40 mph, the steering wheel becomes very unstable. It feels like I can't control the car. Any tips on what to do or check?

Hi, just read your write up. I've had one since 1989, which is a 1987 JX model. Been through three children and now I am back to driving it. But it's had very little upkeep and still runs fine. But as you said, it depends on the owner. You cannot follow the very first thing under the hood and do an owner's manual change oil every 7500. Don't try that or you will be having trouble, but everything else... well one other thing, put it in 4th gear not 2nd, and the transfer case in neutral when towing.

Thanks for the great write up and stay safe.
