4wd w/ No Front Springs???
#11
Severely warped front rotors will make the front end vibrate. But it will be more pronounced when the brakes are applied.

I have a 99 4wd blazer and I had the same problem with the front end shaking at speeds between 65 and 75 and I had my mechanic go thru the whole front end and he could not find anything wrong so all I was left with was changiing the tires. So I went out and purchased 4 new tires and that solved the probelm. The front end does not shake anymore at all.

I think the OP has the optional anti-gravity units on his vehicle that would explain why he doesn't have any springs under it.

Well...on the road, anyway...you gotta admit the t-bars are a joke for offroading.
I know, I know...not the point of the topic...
Back to the topic, there is a way to fix a shaking front end over 65-70mph, and it's free!

Highway speed?
I still think it's a tire issue.
And where are you getting this info that "just about every 4wd Blazer has the same identical problem" which is this shake? I've NEVER had an issue with mine. I don't recall seeing make complaints here about it either, and there are a lot of 4wd Blazer owners here. I'm curious to see where you got this info from.

i agree with you on this sisk. i have 2 different tread/brand tires on the front than the back and i have the same vibration problem. its alot more pronounced with the 2 different sets than my summer tires (which are all 4 the same).
another thing that it could be (kinda doubtful). a guy i work with cannot take his blazer on the highway anymore because his vibration is so bad. his harmonic balancer is bad

Yeah, that t bar is made out of spring steel. If you was to mark it in a spot ans jack up the lower control are you will see it move. Thats how you get the spring. But i have to say ive never heard of one without a coil, leaf or t-bar. My self i like the t-bar you can lower or rasie the frount with and its free. You can do a t-bar crank and shackles for around 25 bucks. You cant lift a coiled vechile or lower one for 25 bucks. Chevy has been doing this for years(you must be a ford man
).
