i am having a problem with the suspension on this van. it seems that the vehicles want to roll when making turns at higher speeds. the handling is very soft and when making full turns at low speeds i experience tire rub inside the wheel wells. i have replaced the end link bushings and the outer tie rods as there was a lot of play in the wheels when placed on jackstands and the wheel were off the ground. what would be the most likely cause of this problem?
thank you

When you had it off the ground, where was the play coming from? Was the center link and pitman arm good?
