Front end shimmy
OK heres another post about front end. I dont think it is the death wooble as much as just a shimmy, kinda like the tires are out of balance at 50-60 mph. Ive changed out everything but hubs and axle u-joints. Cant find any slack in them. The truck drove better before I started changing out bjs tracbar and upgraded steering. I have rotated tires numerous times and it doesnt make a difference. Ive had the truck aligned too. I dont want to keep throwing money into front end unless a part needs to be changed and I dont want to buy new tires unless that is the problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Advocate of getting the ban button used on him...
Check your ball joints.... oh wait
Check the tracbar and get an alignment..... oh crap
Look into the upgraded steer...... never mind!!
Welcome to DTR!!
Seriously now, fill out your signature so we know all the specs on your truck. Any mods, and upgrades that are not factory. This will help to give better answers.

Well Im planning on putting on the steering box stabilizer. Also planning on goin ahead with new Spicer axle u-joints and Timken wheel hub assemblies even though I cant find any slack in them. Got 100k on truck.
