My wife wrecked my truck a few months back and this is driving me nuts. It is a 1500 4x4 2001 QCSB with a 5.9. Truck only had like $700 worth of damage compared to the totalled Miata she hit LOL. Anyways, she was hit in the left front right on the tire to be exact. Truck had the track bar, both tie rod ends, and various other front end components replaced. Truck has been realigned 3 times now and it is still messed up. Had tires rotated twice, rebalanced once and problem remains. It gets real bad when I pull my car trailer with the truck, which is the primary reason I have the truck. Anybody have any suggestions? It's bad enough I'm thinking about trading it in even though I would lose my shirt on it.

 

ok so what's the problem... you mentioned how it broke, what was replaced but didnt mention what it's doing... (or if you did I didnt see it the 2x I read it).

 

I *bleep* over a lot of stuff too but it's in the post heading "Looking for input on a steering shimmy/wander ".

 

oh, was I supposed to read the header? lol... <jk> I missed that.

i'd add some caster to the alignment. if that doesnt take care of it, look @ the ball joints.
