help with checking suspension..bad shaking
So Im having a bit of shaking@ hwy speeds,if youve read my post in the past I had a light shake@45 thought it was a miss but that has been ruled out.I was on the hwy the other day&it started shaking like I've seen in the videos of death wobble.It feels like it coming from the seat or floors if that makes sense.
Well I need some help I need to check some suspension stuff out,I know how to check the shocks&ball joints but that's about it so if anybody can suggest what else to check&how id appreciate it.I've only had my tires on for about two months but I'm about to repaint her for the 2nd time&soon as I do that Ill have the tires done.I Really would appreciate any&all help thanks.

Shock absorbers?... Typically front passenger will go first as it sees the most action... kind of feels like an out of balance wheel, without the steering wheel shimmy, as it's a vertical wheel hop.
If let go, you'll get a flat spot worn on your tire.
For me, it showed up between 60-65 MPH (accelerating through or steady within that range), with 149,000 on the clock.

I have a slight vibration around 45mph. Only thing wrong with my suspension are the control arm bushings and leaf spring bushings. Those are the only things that haven't been replaced recently.
May or may not help you. With a truck this old, you can pretty much guarantee that all the bushings are dry-rotted/worn out.

no link but they were on amazon, cheaper than anywhere else. free shipping and the fourth one free if you buy a whole set. mail in rebate from manufacturer . I got the 5000 series because I am cheep and my truck has 225,000 miles on it. Put on the best you can afford. like shoes or mattresses
