Default Uh Oh.. Shakey Shakey!

Well.. On my way home from work today.. not a block away from the parking lot and my truck starts to TREMBLE.. dunno if it saw a gas station with 385 a gallon or what.. but as soon as i pulled over to check it out.. it smoothed back out again.. i cant see anything wrong.. but i've heard of a few things that go wrong with the suspension.. been planning on replacing most of it.. just didnt think it would start to go out on me so soon. I do need new tires.. which could cause it.. i would say i was around 35.. 127K 1500 V6 Regular Cab.
Any Input?

Was it the truck or the road? Road conditions can do that to you. It was temp, if it don't happen again dont worry.

Is`your truck a 4X4 (can't remember). A terrible ride tat clears up when you slow down is the classic sign of a Death Wobble. search for that here and see if it sound familiar.

2x4. Havnt had any problems out of it since.. i do have a constant shake.. have for a while.. just figured it was the tires.. but that one time was like the hulf picked my truck up and was trying to rip it in half.. Its the same road i take everyday. Temp has been going up here in texas tho. I will keep an eye on it.. new tires on the way.
