bronco shuddering

[olred90]

hi all,

i've been looking at a 93 bronco (full size). its a good shape, 137,000 miles. power windows, locks, mirrors. its a huge upgrade from my ranger. but anyway, i took it for a test drive today and it runs good but twice it started shaking when i was doing around 40. it stopped after a little bit but what could be the problem?

Auto trans?

yeah

Tie rod ends or something maybe? Dad's '92 Dodge was doing that, and that's what it was.

There are lots of things it could be...could be as simple as a tire out of balance, or something like that. If you're serious about buying it, have somebody check it out.

Does it happen under acceleration? Even speed? Braking? In gear or out of gear coasting?

i think it was just riding along at 40, although it could have been shifting into the high gear
