Shaking
Alright, I have a 99 ram 1500 4x4. I’ve done a decent amount of repairs, plenum gasket, new idler pulley, spark plugs , wires, cap and rotor, coil. Has a new temperature sensor and Air idle control valve, also replaced inner and outter tie rods and sway bar bushing and links . issue is around 50 mph the truck starts to shake, not violently but it seems to shift up and while going 50 the rpms drop to 1500-2000 but if I give it gas it’ll shift down smoothly and as I gain speed the shaking sigh go away. So only around 50 mph does it shake and when my foot is in the gas. I can’t figure it out, any ideas? Thanks |
Tires out of balance, or unevenly worn?
|
Shakes on both gears, 3rd and OD @50mph?
Condition of the U-joints and support bearing (if so equipped)? |
Sounds like unevenly worn tires to me. I also had the steering wheel shake bad when mine were really bad.
|
I had a vibration at 48mph when my tires needed to be balanced.
It wouldn't hurt to pop the driveshaft off and roll the u-joints around to feel for any grit or binding. Look for dents and see if the weights are still on the driveshaft while you're under there. |
If you hold steady at 50mph, and push the o/d off button, (maintain 50mph) does the shaking go away?
