my truck shakes like crazy over seventy five mph what do you think the reason is for that?

 

My guess would be one of the following:

Tires
Wheels
Wheel Balance
Tie Rods
Ball Joints
Steering Box
Front Bushings
Bearings

Narrows it down a bit, eh?

 

Yeah probably need an alignment :-D one bad front shock can cause your truck to shake also. Most shops i've been to charge minimal for an alignment until they have to fix anything. I think the one i used to work at charges $75 to scan it and then their $90 an hour to fix it(usually takes 30-45minutes if nothing is broken).

 

My truck has had several severe cases of death wobble, all at different speeds/conditions. Last case was a tire coming apart internally mixed with a loose steering box and loose left front shackle. it sucks because it seems any thing in the front end can cause wobble if the conditions are right(or wrong as it seems)

 

Do the easiest/cheapest things first. Try rotating your tires from front to rear to eliminate a bad balance or bad tire. That's what my problem was.

 

yea the tires are new. man it could be any of those things hahaha like all my shocks are bad i need an alignment but i think that if i get the alignment that ill find out how many more problems there are

 

u joints?

 

na i done replaced them not to long ago lol and i checked them a week ago cause i thought they nay have been the culprit for another thing lol

 

Maybe 18 years of normal wear and tear on a truck engineered on 1960's technology when the maximum legal highway speed in most states was 70 could have something to do with this?

 

no, that have anything to do with it , its a dodge thing. mine shakes at an ide

 

idk, my 85 leaning tower of power would do 90mph and 30mpg doing it. My 91 does a little more than that and holds the road smoother at speed than it does chattering away at idle.
