If your getting any shake or wobble without hitting your brakes (after bumps or turing) its the tie rod ends.

If you have a 1500 with IFS it CANNOT be death wobble. That is a SFA issue only.

[quote=dirtydog;1768866]When you HIT your BRAKES and get any type of Vibration or Wobble.....This means your rotors are warped!

Not cessenarilly, You may have an incorrect wheel balance. Have both sides of your wheels balanced. Thats what i have done everytime. Im willing to sacrifice a few scratches on the rim for tire life and a smooth ride. Use a reputable tire dealer and request the most experienced tech to get the best balance and find out how old the equipment that they use is.

2009 Rams have the same problem.
http://dodgeforum.com/forum/4th-gen-...en-ram-10.html

does anyone know if they use the same brake/rotor components in the latest version.

Have been dealing with this wheel shake problem since FEb.

If your gonna swap your brakes out, I just (Yesterday) put EBC rotors and pads on the front of my truck. When i was looking around, to get the best quality rotors and pads from NAPA, it was about the same price. Surprisingly, after 67000+ miles, the back rotors are still like new. Had them turned and put ceramic pads from NAPA on the back. Put about 100 miles on it yesterday after I finished it and it stops like a dream. Still taking it easy because everything needs time to bed in, but it went from more than half pedal to stop to barely having to press the pedal at all.
