All over road, Wanders with new tires.

There are even posts of stock trucks with this problem....weird. Well after the 5100 i'll see how bad it is. Do you think different tires like at's will do the same thing?

 

It wander with my rugged trails on so I really don't think AT's will change it much

What he said...

 

Well ill leave the mt's on then....i have 30 day garrentee from NTB so i could ail out if i wanted, i just like the looks of the bk mt's! If everybody's truck does it then it makes me feel much better..........never have i had a truck with so much bump steer though!!!

 

so show me jk

 

what happens if you swap the tires to the opposite sides? that would narrow it down to suspension or tires.

 

are they wider tires then stock? Wide tires grab the grooves in the road and tend to follow them.

My 31 10.5 15 michelins dont do it

but my 265 70 16 goodyears do it.

 

It may be the tires. I had bfgoodrich G-Force tires. They were very grippy & would pull side to side if there were ruts in the road.

 

So last friday i installed the 5100's at 1.75, everything thing went great, got on road and it vibrated at 35-50 front cv's. Went and had it aligned. Didnt fix it. When back to house and installed 1 inch drop in diff, still the same problem. Drove for 2 day and so frusterated with my vibrating truck that use to drive so good i took the 5100's from 1.75 back to stock hieght!! Now my truck is awesome, no vibe.

What is even better is that i have had my truck aligned 4 different ways in the last week!!!! I had a wandering problem even stock with the new tires, and with some research on here and also on all the lift kit sites i came up with my own aligment setting. The last ones are perfect..NO WANDERING!! I think camber was 0, toe was .03 and caster( the big important one that wandering is caused from is 2.4!!! Thanks everyone for the alignment help, now im happy with the yota!!

From what i have found the reason that the truck vibrate in the front at least is because the front left cv shaft has so much play where it slides into the diff case, if u grab it it moves up and down 3/8 of in inch...and everyone does it, even brand new with zero miles still have atleast 1/4 of play...i thing toyota f'ed up if you ask me, the cv shaftes are almost straight across in a stock truck then when lifted the cv change to a slight angle, nothing bad but enough to make the cv shaft(sag where the play is and wobble...Well thats my theory.
