ok i didn't notice this vibration until i went 4-wheeling a couple weeks ago....when i get up around 60+ mph i get a very bad vibration in the car....like the whole car shakes. im thinking it may be a bent rim. any ideas?

 

If you only just noticed it when you went wheeling then it can't be the rim, unless you hit somethin hard while you where playing.
Does it only do it in 4x4? Start by getting the front end and front drive shaft checked out. could just be a u-joint. Also make sure your front tires are tight.

 

i def. just started noticing it after i went wheeling. and my rear end did go air born on a hill lol

 

maybe your wheel balance is off? can be as simple as that... mighta hit a bump and knocked off a weight...

 

ill take it to a shop and see if they can figure it out....thanx for the help

 

I do hope its something simple light a wheel balance... would be cheap. hehe

 

Do you feel the shake in the steering wheel or in the seat? Steering wheel lends itself to something in the front end typically out at the wheels. The seat will lend itself to something in the driveline or in the rear axle (rear tires/rims, u-joints, etc).

 

Use the info posted above along with this info.
Get your tires road force balanced. Like $15 a tire, but it will tell you if you bent a rim or blew a cord in the belt, or a host of other things, and it will provide the optimal balance for your tire rim combination.

I would also make sure there is no mud caked to teh inside of the rim, you have 6" of backspacing, thats alot of space for mud to cake up and could be the cuase as well.

While the truck is getting the tires looked at, have them do a free front end inspection. They should check the steerin linkage.

Post up what you find out.

 

ok kool...thanx everyone. once i get this done ill post up my info.

 

ok i was washing my truck and i noticed a massive amount of mud caked up in my wheels.....so, i pressure washed the hell out of it and no more vibration. who would of thought it was so easy lol
