O4 Dakota 4x4 3.7 v6 truck leans hard to the left 2" total give or take but the body is straight theres wobble when braking above 55 she kinda hops around at highway speeds when going over bumps it feels like the drivers front bounces alot I don't know much about these trucks and any help or ideas yall have woud be great I've only had it for a month I've done both hubs and both front shocks shes got almost 160000 on it and I've kept a full tank in it since I got it I've averaged 14 to 16 mpg going about 100 miles a day 50/50 in town and highway

 

Just love these run on sentences.


Wobbling while braking is indicative of warped rotors. Did it bounce around and lean before you replaced the shocks? I assume you replaced all 4? What brand?

 

Unfortunately no I could only afford the fronts for now. It started bumping and leaning a week ago I replaced the front shocks yesterday. Still leaning alot no consistently visible improvement. Still bumping around and like teetering on the highway.

 

The wobble doesn't really happen below 50 at all when breaking

 

It's pronounced when breaking above that though.

 

Well the wobbling could be a number of different things. Could be uneven tread wear on tires. Check that by rotating tires front to back. Could be a damaged rim check that also by rotating tires. Could be warped brake rotors which wobbling would only occur when breaking. Out of round tires could even cause rotors to warp. The unevenness of the truck sounds like something with the springs of the truck shock absorbers have nothing to do with ride height. Worn out shocks would allow truck go up and down excessively after going over a bump

 

It doesnt have springs. And the tires are brand new all the way around

 

So it has torsion bars? Have you inspected them to see if one is bent?

 

No spring surely it has coil or leaf springs

 

Ye it's got torsion bars. No I hadn't really check the I looked at them but not that close. This is only my second Dodge I'm learning my last one was a hero, lose a leg and just keep going fall down a cliff and get up and go that was a hell of a short cut. Died a heros death too.
