SHAKES BAD!
Got a 83 F350 when I bought the truck the guy I bought it from said he had the whole frontend redone. Had several other people tell me the same thing that he did infact have the front end done. When Im going down a smooth road the truck just starts shacking like a wheel is about to come off. I stop completly and start back up and it might or might not do it again. Doesn,t do it all the time but does it most of the time at least once sometimes more.It seems to do it when I go 50 or faster for a few miles. Had a guy tell me to put a new pitman arm on that would prolly fix my problem. What do yall think.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 01-Jan-03 AT 05:53 PM (EST)]Tires were(are) brand new.I asume they were balanced when the guy had them put on truck. Maybe I will take them off and see.Hubs are not locked.

I had a truck that would do this. It would be fine till you hit a bump, then it would shake and the only way to stop it was to slow the truck down almost to a stop. It turned out to be a loose shock absorber mount.
