front end issues

anyone know any common problems with the front end in the 2end gens?

when im driving down a bumpy road... it feels like something is puishing up through the underneath of the truck. (front end) can feel it a little bit in the gas pedal aswell. could this be ball joints? this has been ocurring for quite some time now. it is also tramlining all over the place going down the pavement.. is it normal with these trucks to have front end issues like this with the vehicle only having 116000 miles on it? this problem is progressivley getting worse.also the clutch master cylinder is pissing brake fluid all over the floor of the cab . anyone else have these probs? dealer wants just over $400 to get it fixed. seems like robbery to me.. I told them to F**k OFF! i just had the bearing done on the right driverside. i dont want to dump money into it if i dont have to haha.
thanks in advance guys!

 

also i am currently running very warn 265/70 BFG all terrains with 85,000 miles on them so far. my new mickey thompson baja radial stz 265 /75/16 should be here next week. some of the issues might be caused by the shittty tires tho! just thinkin.

 

might be tires might be shocks. first 2 i could think of right now. need coffee

 

Probably both if you are still on OEM shocks. With the new treads, get some Bilsteins on all corners along with an alignment. Are you running a lift?

 

shocks were replaced at 20,000 miles. there was a bulliten on them so they were replaced for free under warranty . not running a lift. i wish i was! i had installed a cheap 2'' spacer lift in the front a long time ago.. took it out after 2 weeks cause it rode like sh*T

 

it could be shocks tho! i didnt really think of that. truck carries a lot of weight at ttimes. and i go on the beach quite often.

 

A combination of worn tires, worn shocks, and a bad alignment will cause your issues except for the brake leak, which is probably the first priority of repair, imo.

 

Maybe silly question but are you running original wheel bearing?

 

yes. just had the front right side replaced tho.. also just got new tires the other day. it rides somewhat better.. but there is still something strange going on it the front end.the steering feels loose . but everything is tight. could it be ball joints?

 

got mickey thompson stz 265/75/16 running them on stock rims.

 

Baja STZ* tires*

 

anyone running these on your trucks? they seem ok soo far. but not as agressive off road also not as good in the mud. but they are somewhat better on fuel. and way lighter than the bfg all terrains i had before
