Violent Front Wheel Shake between 38 - 50 mph

<< < (2/5) > >>

Evilgoat:
Tyre bulge?
Thrown a balance weight?
Ripped/lost a bit of tread?
UJ?
Steering linkage?


Just thoughts :)

Re-Discovery:
Tyre bulge? Brand New Tyres!?!?!
Thrown a balance weight? Weights are on the inside of the tyre!?!?!
Ripped/lost a bit of tread? Brand New Tyres!?!?!
UJ? Possibly????......will check when the sun comes out!?!
Steering linkage? Possibly????......will check when the sun comes out!?!

Check the tyres anyway, I've had the low profile son the audi go after a few miles. Then again they were Nankangs.

Weight, make sure they are still moving and havent somehow gotten stuck. I'm not convinced that will work too well anyhow and if you loose a large lump of rubber they wont work.

Lump of tread, see above.

I'm not being funny but lway check the obvious first, sometimes you'll find something silly. I beleive Datalas has had a new tyre come apart recently too.

I'm not a betting man, if I was then £££ on it being swivel bearings.

We have had this sympton before on LR axles and both times it was swivel bearings.

lmfao...my 1st port of call the rims, they are a royal pain in the rear for it  :roll:  try fitting some other wheels and see what happens

next the steering damper if worn or not fitted thatll cause a horrable if not uncontrollable shaking of the wheel ( 1/4 turn either direction  :shock: ) if not fitted or is nackerd

swivles do give a wobble but thats more a bump steer side to side wobble

as so do wheel bearings
