Check that the RTV is not expired and be careful with its application and that the surfaces are super clean. I think I could have done a better job with my RTV when I did my LIM gaskets and how have a small oil leak. It is nothing horrible just more very annoying.

Does setting it on fire and rolling it down a hill count?

Default Tread and tire balance

I attemped to diagnose my highway speed (75-85) vibration/shake. balljoints seem to be stiff, so im not sure. I can wiggle the wheel on its steering axis, but the rod ends look okay. a buddy of mine claims the inner tie rod on the driver side is moving, but i cant see it. No idea, i just know it doesnt feel safe.


Check check your tire tread and your wheel balance. I had the same problem changed my tires problem went away kind of. It was like an ostrich sticking its head in the sand. real problem was the bushings on your upper and lower control arms. You may also want to check your sway bar link pins
