Weird Suspension Issue Help?

Just recently, I have noticed that when I go over a pot hole, when my rear wheels go over it there is a little swaying shimmy that occurs. I do not recall feeling this since the weather got so wet lately. It is like a brief shake from side to side....weird/ Any one have this happen to them?

Hey coop -- I've noticed te same recently. I figured it has to do with a less-than-optimal rear alignment, and the TL's new suspension "feature" of increasing rear toe-in during compression to improve cornering. It's this same "feature" that is causing the rear tires of some (myself included) to wear prematurely, especially under load.
