I have a 1994 f150. I cleaned my hubs out they where very dirty. Put them back together and everything engages but the tires don't lock in correctly. Drive shaft spins. Axel shaft spins. Tires do not engage.?


And on to the shaking. Today I was driving and my left front tire starting shaking a lot to a point where I couldn't control my truck. Im not sure what it is. Could be ball joints? Not sure. Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

 

It could be a frozen axle u joint as to the shaking of the left tire.

 

sounds like you may need to take your lock outs back apart and double check they are back together right. if the axle shaft spins but wheel dosent they are not engaging. are they auto or manual hubs?

 

If it was shaking I would take the hub back apart (to make sure its together right), and also check my ball joints, make sure the tire isn't loose, maybe even check to se how loose the bearing is.

If it was bouncing I would check the tire, and the shock.

 

Alright thanks. And they are manual warn lock in hubs. I just took them apart so maybe I didn't put them back together right! I'll check that. Thanks guys.

 

well i fixed my 4x4 just needed new hubs. but the shaking is there still. havent really checked anyhting yet. but i noticed on my body lift of 3' that the very front lift is broken, maybe thats why its shaking?

 

So you're saying your body mount is broken? Or the 3" lift rubber bushing?

 

Does it shake all the time or start at a certain speed?

 

It shakes around 30 mph a little. Then if I hit a bump it death shakes. Sometimes not all the time. And yes just the 3" rubber bushing bolt is broken...

 

Get a bolt, then drive it to see if that fixes it.

 

I cant see a bad body bushing causing "death wobble". I'd look more towards steering and suspension components. Have someone start it up and rock the steering wheel back and forth, from say 10:00 to 2:00 while you look for play in tie rods, I beam (TTB) pivots, steering gearbox, frame at the gearbox, etc.

 

Alright. I will try both of those. Thanks
