    I had a vibration in steering wheel at 35-40 balanced tires and solved. But there is still a vibration that comes and goes on the interstate at 65-70 you feel in the steering wheel like a back and forth shake any ideas?

    Sounds like they're still not 100%. Try to find a place that has both Haweka adapters, and a Hunter Road Force balancer. As long as your not running mud tires, after that, it should ride like glass.

    Could be you're still not balanced correctly.

    What's the back story here? Is it a new truck? Used, and just got tires/alignment done? Did you go back to the same place? How's the ride now?

    I went in for my oil change and tire rotation. I had noticed a vibration in the steering wheel and the dealership said the tires weren't balanced right. They made it perfect at up to 50 but at 65 it started with a bad vibration. Today they found the driver front was out out(had been on back) and the alignment was out on the passenger front the tow was .11 if I remember right. They used their new,this week new, road force balancer and it drives like new.
