Consumer Description
WHEN TRUCK HITS A BUMP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, ESPECIALLY IN A LEFT HAND CURVE AND DOWN HILL SLOPE, IT STARTS SHAKING VIOLENTLY. IT BECOMES HARD TO STEER AND BRAKING HARD ONLY MAKES THE PROBLEM WORSE. YOU CAN ONLY LEFT OFF THE GAS AND SLOW DOWN HOPING YOU CAN KEEP IT ON THE ROAD UNTIL IT STOPS. IT HAPPENED TWICE ON OUR FAMILY VACATION WITH MY WIFE AND KIDS IN THE TRUCK. THEY FEARED FOR THEIR LIVES. AFTER THAT TRIP THE DUAL STEERING STABILIZER, 2"LIFT AND ADJUSTABLE TRACK BAR WERE INSTALLED.IT TOOK 6 MONTHS OF REPLACING DIFFERENT PARTS, ALIGNMENTS, BALANCING TIRES, MODIFYING SUSPENSION TO FINALLY CORRECT THE PROBLEM AT A COST OF OVER $2,600.00.
