So I bought this 95’ with decent mileage on it. I had to put brand new tires on it, and when I drive 45mph or more I start to get this wobble that feels like it’s coming from the back. I went and rebalanced my tires at a different shop and it didn’t change anything. The shop that I had my tires rebalanced at told me “all 4 wheels are wobbly” and didn’t elaborate on that at all. I have new brakes coming all around because maybe a warped rotor? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!

It’s a 4wd. When I asked the shop what they meant by wobbly wheels they just couldn’t elaborate. I have to replace the brakes all around anyways so maybe that will help but taking it to a different shop and having them look at it could be helpful.

Did you drive the truck around 45+ MPH before the tires were changed? If so, did it have the wobble issue during that time?
Lastly, there is a common issue with these trucks called "death wobble". You can find numerous videos about it on YouTube. The cause is typically work front end parts, such as the track bar, ball joints, wheel bearings and tie rod ends.

If you had the DW you would know it! Whole truck shakes and you have to change your underpants.
Since your truck has "decent mileage" you should find a shop that can explain things. What is "decent mileage"? I would have the ball joints, track bar and tire rod ends checked for slop regardless.

Given the age of the truck, it's good to check the front end parts mentioned for worn parts regardless. It sounds like you're not experiencing death wobble, but play and leaking fluid around the steering box isn't a good thing either, so at a minimum, the steering box and possibly power steering hoses/power steering pump should be replaced to get rid of the steering slop & leakage.
