92 5 speed 11'bed
spent the last 4 years getting the bugs out, as time and cash allowed.
never drove far, just a few miles to the river to get 450 gal water tank filled
last trip it made out of state, it ran fine.
compared to when purchased.
I wondered why the po insisted on driving the truck to my house for me, luckily only 5 mles away.
hardly any brakes, death wobble inching along..lol.
That's the short version that brings us to present.
I recent trip to help my friend Todd's son, haul a truck back for him (120 mile)
started acting like "death wobble" coming back.
At first I thought the tires were flat spotted from sitting.
But as we came to a stop, at the exit,
dang steering wheel got ripped out of my hands.$%&%^*^&(
Right front tire had a massive sidewall budge.
change tire, go home.
buy a new pair for the front. STILL shakes....
Had a bad tire (new one)
figured it out after replacing center link, tie rod ends, pitman arm and rotors/pads.
Since they were replacing that tire, decided to complete the full set.
