Weird Vibration

[Red Dragon]

I have a odd vibration coming from the front of my truck. It stops when I press the brakes and it seems to get worst when I turn left. Its not that big of a vibration so it doesnt effect my driving. I was wondering if this was a cheap or very expensive fix? I have a b2300 1996.

Would 97 leather mustang seats fit in my truck?

First off is it a 4wd or 2wd?

kinda sounds like front wheel bearings.

Well... Ya fix it yet? Is it a 2 or 4wd? If it is the bearings , try tightening the hub or spidle nut. Check a maual for this procedure, you dont want to be screwing with this stuff. If this doesn't fix the problem pull the bearings out and inspect them for burn marks.

A quick easy way to check if your bearings are good is take the truck for a 10 -15 minuite drive using the brakes as little as possible to keep the heat down. When you stop put your hand on the hub, if it's hot or fairly warm, inspect your bearings.

Vibration ?

If there is a chance its a wheel bearing issue, why drive it,, just jack up each wheel one at a time and grab the top and the bottom of the tire and try move it back and forth checking for wobble, (push top hand away from you and pull bottom hand toward you at the same time) and if you feel any movement you need to adjust'em a bit

OR it could be a combination of tires that are cupping and a worn tie rod, just take it to a shop that will give you a free check and estimate, and go from there, make sure its an honest shop
