Hey guys.
Ive been having a bit of a vibration/wobble lately.
brought the truck in. they said my pass wheel bearing was bad and passenger tie rod end.
well I just had a yukon freespin hub kit installed 5000 miles ago or less, and its also capable of being tightened... had a buddy look at it, wheel bearing was fine.
tie rod was bad on the passenger drag link. so we replaced that. didnt/cant get an alignment so I know im a bit out... would that cause a vibration/wobble at 70-100 km/h? at 125+ it goes away. I kinda checked my U joints and dont think it was them, I could have checked them wrong (neutral, go under truck and wiggle it... no movement except internally, not U joints though)
anyways, I still got a vibration and cant figure out what it is. truck drives fine in town except for some creaking in the front end when turning very tight, but I got a DOR steering kit on the way.
I just wanted to post some pics and see what you guys think of the Rize steering set up.... I think the one piece is missing some balls in the bearing???? thats kind of worrying me.
I was hesitant on taking out the Rize steering stuff...but after seeing how easy it would be, and how much it would improve my steering... im ready to take the Rize stuff out of my steering.
What would I need to order so I can run proper steering on my truck with 13" lift and 40s????
thanks guys!!!
missing anything or what???
its the lower one on this joint:
which connects to my EMF heim joint (which is loose a little bit) which is attached to the steering box/pitman arm, and then to the drag link I believe:
I am also going to put new sway bar, sway bar end links, and dual stabilizers... lots of money!!!!
