Botched axle replacement?

[Newchadman]

I replaced both front axles in my Impreza after lifting it and now there’s a Big shimmy when I accelerate. Did I botch the axle replacement? Everything is back in place tight/torqued to specs.

Are the replaced axles new, are they oem ?

Check tie rod ends and ball joints for movement. Existing tyre wear and camber adjustment can cause issues as well. Process of elimination, good luck.

I will (I really don’t want to take it apart again...)

Yes. Both new and oem
