Strange bouncing from the steer axle... 🤷🏻‍♀️

{"text":"I’ve got a weird bouncing/ shaking when driving down the road and I don’t know how to make it stop or what to do to fix it. It feels like it’s coming from the driver side steer. I’ve replaced my steers twice in 40,000 miles. Now have really good Michelin’s. Got them balanced, done a 3 axle alignment, got Centramatics put in, and replaced the wheel/rim on the driver’s side. Still bouncy, and the steering wheel is starting to shake again too. And no, I haven’t hit anything so far. Help?","videos":"[]","link":"{}","pics":"[]","canComment":true}

599477 发表于 2019-09-07 22:05:00 Yeah it’s on the inside of the left tire and outside of the right. I had the last tires balanced. And now I have the Centramatics...

","text":"that wear pattern doesn't suggest balance issue, your scrubbing your tires not bouncing them. sounds like a bad 3 axle alignment. are you holding your wheel more to the right or left?\n\nyour caster- camber could be off. meaning your dragging your front axle rather than riding on top of it. few shops check this when doing an alignment unless you specifically ask."}

599477 发表于 2019-09-08 01:09:55 Drum unfortunately. But I definitely will. How is their cost compared to others?

","text":"MD is the best, as far as I’m concerned. The service they provide is exceptional... and the father/son team who own the name... always available to help: just a phone call away.\n\nPrice is a minor issue... when I want a job done, I want it done right the first time. If it’s a few dollars more... but I never have to deal with it again, that’s money well spent.\n\nLoves is good, at certain things. Alignment... I’ll pass.","replyToPid":203550}

596323 发表于 2019-09-07 22:34:52 Yeah I just saw the rest of the post. Sorry I missed that. I was going to recommend the centramatics but you’ve already covered all I was going to recommend....maybe a kingpin issue? How thorough are the mechanics about greasing the trucks?
