Vibration over 60 MPG
I’ve been reading that older Ford Auto Locking Hubs aren’t reliable with age. Problem – they don’t engage when you need them and other times don’t disengage. My truck has automatic hubs.
When I drive above 60 MPH on the highway the truck vibrates and there is a droning sound (not the engine). I’ve also noticed that when I turn tight, it feels like the truck is in 4 wheel or semi-4 wheel. Could one of my front hubs be locked? If so, any good way to tell?
My problem may be unbalanced wheels / rough tires, but I thought I'd get everyone’s opinion.
Thank you!
