Entropy98 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Ok so I have change the steering rack bushings, repacked the bearings, had the wheels balanced, and I still have a front end vibration going on. It usually happens in the 40-50 mph range and when stopping, but does happen randomly at other speeds. I did just put the 1 inch spacer on the front end in addition to the AC lift. After the AC lift install I had an allignment done. Then I put the spacers on, and have only had the wheels balanced after that. Do you think that I need another alignment to take care of the problem, or do you think that something else is wrong? Oh yeah, when I changed my steering rack bushings, the rack it self did move (shift) a little to the drivers side and has not been alligned since. When driving on dirt roads, or hitting pot holes there is also a bit of a Kluncking noise that comes from something in the steering. Any info will help I am willing to try anything. Thanks, Tyler Help!!! :help: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asrautox Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 what does your alignment printout say? were your tires road-force balanced? if it's a repeatable vibration that happens at a specific speed above 35-40 mph it's most likely the tires. With your lift you probably have some positive camber going on which could cause uneven tire wear and make balancing difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entropy98 Posted August 25, 2006 Author Share Posted August 25, 2006 I have the camber adjustment bolts so there should be no problems there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vengeful Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 After installing the spacers, your alignment needs to be re-checked. You're probably toed-in. You also need to re-align the steering, too, if that hasn't been done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
