hey so im bored at work and i thought id ask what do u guys think the problem is.
so just last weekend when i was driving home i noticed a viberating feeling from the front. idk what it would be. it happens for 80-90 n above.
i was thinking tires need balancing?

thanks
 
Could be ball joints or wheel bearings, depending on what axle you have on the front..

Is it more on a specific side? Or in the middle?
 
Well, my front end is tight, my tires are well balanced, and my my wheel is about as blurry as Superman at 80 to 90 MPH. I'd call that normal.


Unless that speed is in KPH, at which point, balance tires, check front end, replace anything that has play.
 
hey so i have a dana 35 ttb up front and as far as i can tell its about center.
and its 80 kph.
ill have to check for play tom.

thanks
 
I wish my truck could do 90. I am too scared to go past 85 on my 2.3l 4 cylinder.
 
ride disturbance rules of thumb

1. 0-20 (parking lot speed) most often seperated tire 2. 35-50 check driveline first 3. 55-65 and no where else -tire balance. these will hold true 75% of the time. alignment seldom causes shake. sometimes it boils down to detective work-when did it drive good and what has changed since? with wheelers its a little different we break or bend some stuff that usually don't get bent. I agree with those that said check for tire balance and loose parts

Dude, you need to move to America....we use mph and gallons here....lol

Check and see if the tires are wearing funny up front. Notice anything with the tread wear? Notice any funny wobble when you go over a bump or when you turn sharp?
