WTF is wrong with my truck!

Most vibrations are caused by tires. I had a terrible shake on mine from 55mph to 65mph until I bought new tires and had them road force balanced (did it myself). Now no more shakey!!! Hope you get it figured out.

 

Try checking the air pressure. i had some tire shaking but after setting the air pressure to 35 psi all the way around it went away.

 

i dont want to piss keith off, but ive sent him a PM already and he didnt have anymore suggestions. im just trying to see what you guys all have done with your vibration problems. the tires are not worn unevenly, theyre practically new. and yea the used the gsp 9700 but they did NOT road force it and tried to tell me the big lugs would throw the road force balancer off and it wouldnt work. i have hub rings they made no difference but only costed 6 bucks for the 4 of them. i also have the extended thread lugs that are supposed to help center the wheels and they havent made a difference either. they never gave me any vibrations until fucking wal mart touched them, now ive spent like 3 weeks trying to fix the problem becuase they are too fucking stupid to kow how to balance a tire.

ps: all the tires took very little weight, 3ounces was the most that was on there, so i figure they cant be that badly fuckin ruined, ive had smaller less agressive bfg at's take 3 times that weight.

 

If it hasn't been road force balanced , get it road force balanced and meet us back here

 

ok man will do.

 

That's the absolute first thing I suggested to do in the other thread....

 

I know

Lol

 

Seems like there is some mis-communication between the OP and his shop

 

As I have noted before, it sounds like his shop has no idea wtf they are doing.

 

i watched them do it, the road force wheel never touched the tire, and they said it would not work. im just gonna have to take it to the dealership.

 

did they do an inner and middle weight or just middle?

 

I had 3 different places try to balance my tires with the same result every time. I even had the magnum powder put in. The truck shook so bad that it bounced off of the road.

My brother suggested this place that guaranteed they could get my tires fixed and balanced.

They actually resurfaced and trued my tires. They are smooth as glass now.

Maybe look for someone in your area that offers this service.

I put 2500 airsoft BB's in each one of my 37's and it balanced them. Might try that if road force balancing on the hunter gsp9700 doesn't work.

 

Do you have a lift?

 

no they just have weights in the inside of the wheel (closest to the face of the rim).

I have a 3 in lift

I have tried airsoft BB's, but i used 2200 and drove 100 ft up the road and had them taken out.

im not sure where id find a shop to regroove or true my tires? im in NH, so not alot to choose from...

 

try to have them do a dynamic instead of static balance

ok i will have to have them try that.
