well taking my happy *** back home, truck started to shake bad going over 55 mph.
i just got back from a 3 week trip so the truck has been parked, checked the air pressure and all four tires are good. i don't see any bumps on the tires so dunno, any ideas what could be making it shake

Tire out of balance, alignment, or a U-joint most likely.


Dead hooker in the back maybe??

does it ever stop at any speed over 55? like around 70? if it stops at some point it is a tire out of balance. can you feel the shake more in the seat or in the steering wheel? if the seat its a rear tire, if its in the wheel its a front tire.

So someone fucked with your car while you were at the strip club? Smells fishy

haha didnt hit a deer or dead hooker on the back. and i didn't make it to the strip club, made it to the highway and turned around back home.


95greenmaro I didn't pushed it to 70 so don't know if it stopped at 70, only made it to 65 and it shaked so bad on the steering wheel and on the seat, so drove it back going 55.
today i looked at the balance weights on all 4 rims and looked like some had came off unglued on one of the rears so i only balanced that one, it helped a little so im gonna do the other three tomorrow.
Thanks for the entertaining responses.
