Okay everyone first of all sorry for the upcoming dumb questions.

1. I have pretty bad vibrations not only on the brake pedal but on the steering wheel. It increases the faster I go. So I assume it is the brakes. However my brakes work pretty good still. So could it just be the rotors? or something else in the suspension. I never had this problem until moving and having to take a county road from hell which is finally being torn apart and repaved. So what is your diagnoses and what would be the cost to have fixed or should I just do it myself?

2. Question # 2 is after taking a long trip accross country and driving pretty hard from time to time my engine seems to not have it in itself to go past 90 with out sounding and feeling like their is something wrong. I guess i best could describe it as the engine is maxing out. However I know I have taken it to 120 with out a hiccup including on the first half of the trip. I have amsoil and it is not ready to be changed. Fluids looks good. So could it be a spark plug or wire causing a cylinder from not firing. Even though I dont notice any difference while idiling. It has been at least 6 months now and for some reason I havent really had any concern ( probaly cause I was busy getting engaged and then married )

Well thanks everyone for reading this. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

 

Doubt it is a misfire, that would toss a check engine light. Hmmm, maybe I should ask if you have a check engine light on

 

possibly a bad plug wire? i guess thats the first thought i come up with

 

Okay thaks for the replies so far, No I don't have a check engine light on. Any thoughts on the vibration while just driving and braking. Since the brakes seem to work pretty good, could it just be the rotors or something else like cv jointsor another suspension component.

 

Need Input...

We don't know the part-tickles of your truck

Like year, engin, 4x4, QC, Mods, etc, unless I missed that somewhere.

 

Take it to your dealer and tell them that your truck pulls to the right when you push down on the pedal. I know that's not the problem ,but it's the only way for the dealer to look at your brakes. Mine is also an 04 Quad Cab. every time I step on the brakes my steeriung wheel shakes and it's those cheap rotors . The deal will usually fix themI hope it's still under warrenty. They have replaced mine three times so far and the truck doesn't have 20,000 on it yet.

 

Yes it is still under warranty, I bought it used and have had it for two years. I purchased an extended warranty for peace of mind on having a reliable vehicle for years after years of buying cheap vehicles that last me for a year ( 93 crown victoria, 94 mustang gt, 2 94 cavaliers ). My 2004 Hemi Ram is a regular cab 2500 HD, 4x4,auto. That's about all I can tell you I guess. It is pretty stock as far as gears, tires and so on. The only mods I have made are Amsoil, and an amsoil hi- po air filter. I have full synthetic amsoil for the entire truck but have only put oil in so far. Wanted to change the gears maybe at the same time and new wheels. But now I cant really afford to do this anymore as I have gotten married an changed my jobs.

So if I tell the dealer that is pulls to the right when braking, should I mention anything else like vibrations in steering wheel?????

 

i would say you have heavy vibration in the steering wheel. Knowing a dealership, if you say it pulls to the right when you break, they will ONLY check the right side...

 

Hi moparmuscle69,

Q1 Vibration issue could be, Brakes and or rotors, Tires not balanced, lots of things in the front end. Since you have a warranty take the Service manager for a ride-along so he can see/feel the vibration. If they can't fix it and give you alameunacceptableanswer, ask to speak to his boss, and then his boss, etc.

Q2 I think the stock "speed limiter" for your truckisaround 105 MPH so if you had it to 120 MPH something has been changed. Some inexpensive things to try:Check your air filter to see if it needs a cleaning. Run a good fuel system cleaner through it.Try resetting your PCM. After trying these things, you are going to have to start spending $$

 

on the 04's i believe its 115, that what mine hits and i haven't chipped it or changed it in any way
