problem in my 240, mostly when i hit dips in the highway/bumps
Sometimes its pretty bad, sometimes its not. Put it this way, one time with it, and bald tires, I did a 720 on 64 west bound in the rain, luckily I didnt hit anyone, or anything.. in rush hour morning traffic.
wtf your toe must be like / / or something. I would start with an awd alignment, keep the print outs, should be able to tell you a lot.

I would look into doing all of these instead of going out and assuming that an all wheel alignment would cure it, always check to see what problem is first instead of assumption causing to spend money on an alignment. just take tthe time and check everything.
After speaking with one of my techs he said its a pretty common problem you have. Two things he said he has scene most with this problem is extremely worn out sub frame bushings would cause the car to be very unpredictable under bumper conditions or an extremely and VERY dangerous ball joint about to break. Its hard to tell without actually seeing the car though, but those are two things that he thought of immediatly. Hope this helps!

Well, I've came to the conclusion that I'm a lazy ass. So, anyone know any good suspension shops I could go to to have them check it out, and fix the problem? Or, if possible, Jake, carry your ass over here.
being lazy is a common 240 theme, as I have my engine sitting in the garage waiting and I should be getting it ready to go in
. If you can do a couple 720's on over here I could check it out
