Consumer Description

MASSIVE UNCONTROLLABLE SHAKING IN THE FRONT END OF MY TRUCK. I CAN NOT DRIVE MY TRUCK OVER 50 MILES PER HOUR WITHOUT FEAR THAT I WILL LOOSE CONTROL IF IT STARTS TO SHAKE AND NOT BE ABLE TO GET IT OFF OF THE ROAD WITHOUT ROLLING IT OR HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE. IT DOES THIS ANY TIME YOU HIT A BUMP OR GO OVER AN EXTENSION JOINT IN THE ROAD. I HAVE REPLACED THE FRONT END BEARINGS, ALL 4 SHOCKS, HAD A FRONT END ALIGNMENT AND PUT NEW TIRES ON IT. *TR
