A shimmy is a rapid side to side shaking of the front wheels Shimmies are usually caused by one of the following: a bent rim; a shifted belt in a tire (causing one steel belt to slide sideways on top of the other belt, causing a wave in the tread); a loose steering linkage component; a loose suspension component; or a loose halfshaft or CV joint If the shimmy occurs while cruising, the cause is usually due to a faulty steering or suspension component If the shimmy only occurs under acceleration, then it is usually attributed to a faulty drivetrain component such as a halfshaft or CV joint Finally, if the shimmy is constant from a dead stop and intensifies with speed, then the technician should look for a bent rim or a shifted belt in a tire A good inspection of the above mentioned components usually exposes the cause of a shimmy
