I just replaced the struts on this maxima, everything went fine according to
thr instructions.but.....when I started to drive it the car bucks and
shimmies badly, only under power. If I let off ont he pedal it smothes out
and seems to be aligned fine either when driving or brakng.

I checked and everything is tight any ideas?

Did you take the drive axles out of the front knuckle assembly? If yes, are
you sure you got the axle ends back into the hub and the splines are all
true?? Even though you might think it's still aligned, I'll bet you threw it
out of toe in/out and out of camber.  I've never replaced struts without
having the car realigned.
