i need an alignment really bad. just waiting for my leveling kit to come it, but its on its way and will hopefully be put it this saturday...3/22

im pretty sure this is alignment and not powersteering, just to make sure....my truck somewhat shakes in the front end at high speeds.....and has a little difficulty turning..just a little bit though. im pretty sure this is my sh*t alignment and not my powersteering....

and what are you suppose to top of your powersteering fluid with....i remember some one on here saying that its not powersteering fluid, but something else..but i dont remember

thanks

 

Shakes are more likely balance. Difficulty turning may be a tire pressure issue. Use ATF+4 for power steering fluid.

 

ok thanks. ill pickup some ATF+4 to top off my powersteering.

my pressure is fine. i actually run them at like 3 or 4 psi over what theyre suppose to be at. so theyre not low....and this shakyness has just come into play in the last week or a few days.

this link isnt for the rams, but its till chrysler and say that the ATF+4 shouldnt be used to mic with the powersteering fluid, but to be used as a replacement. they also have other stuff to say about it too....just wondering what your input is on it.

 

Maybe it pitched a wheel weight?

 

possibly..but ill find out what it is next week....ill have my leveling kit in (hopefully) saturday....depends on their shipping.... once i get the spacers in its going in for an alignment. ill test drive it and if its not better ill have them balance them.

 

Which leveling kit? Make sure you take measurements before and after. Take pictures too if you can.

 

i got a 2.5" daystar spacer. i will deff take pics. and i WILL be measuring. a lot of guys that i know that have put them in say you get more than 2.5" due to geometry. which..2.75 or even 3" is fine with me. i dont like when the front sits noticeably higher but a quarter of an inch...i really dont care. i didnt buy shocks...they were recomended but not esssential, but if i feel i need them afterwards ill have to get them.

 

i had a high pitch squeak when my tires were hard left or right, topped it off with atf and it went away. so havent had issues with mixing. you may be an ounce or so off on the balance. i always have to get my tires rebalanced after i get back from the coast, i beat the hell out of it.

 

Ah, youmust have the 2WD. I've got 4WD so those spacerswont work for me.
