Front end vibration
I have a 1991 F150 XLT Lariat long bed extended cab I recently got a vibration in it it seems like it's mostly the front end I replaced the wheel bearings repack them regreased everything I even checked the Driveline I replace the center U-joints because it's a two piece Driveline how do I check the ball joints in the tie rod ends and stuff like if that's what it could be or is it a good my tires are out of balance I've moved all the tires around to different spots and I still have the same vibration

Told ya! But that's a lot of water, I'm surprised you didn't hear it sloshing around! Good thing you found it though!

Be nice to take out some frustration, but I'm having a hard time seeing how an installer could have gotten that much water into a tire he was mounting in the first place. Much less balance it.
And the fact that it worked fine for awhile, but just started up recently tells another tale as well. Not so sure it was the last tech that is the issue.
Sure you don't have some good buddies with a sense of humor hanging about?
Mebee it was them darn Artesians we used to hear about in them beer commercials! Can't remember which brand now, but they sure were funny commercials.
Sorry, got a little off topic there for a second. But I sure do miss some of those old beer commercials.
Glad you found your vibration so quick. Nice to have it acting normally again.
