My driverside balljoints went out got them fixed now I was driving on the highway today and I got the same shake I did when my balljoints went out. It really felt like my wheel was going to fall off at around 50mph

Please please please help me

 

Anyone??????

 

sounds like death woble,look at your trac bar and control arm bushings

 

ive never gotten before ever and i drive on the highway everyday. i figured since the balljoints gave out and i had to drive it like that for a day it stressed something else out

 

x2 on the bushings. and check all of the linkages for tightness if your ball joints went out it could have been enough to kill your bushings and new ball joints could show other items that have worn out.

 

Doesnt sound as if the balljoints was the problem.

Have someone sit in drivers seat, turn the wheel back and forth semi quickly to where the tires just start to move. (Dont start it) Lay under the front and look for movement from something that looks as though it shouldnt. You have something worn out/loose somewhere in steering, suspension, or wheel assembly.

 

well it was the ball joints because they were shot i mean there were gaps between them and stuff. but there is still a problem. would a ujoint cause this. remind u this just came about 2 days ago

 

Dry park test it, you fool!!

Edit: wow thats gay...cant even capitalize all the letters in the post.

 

lol iknow phil its dark and cold right now and im a little to pissed off to think about it

 

dude, daylight tomarrow. kidnap you someone and make them turn the wheel for you...its that simple.

 

iknow. i never got an alignment after the ball joints were replaced. could that be it? but when i got my lift put in my alignment was super off and it never did this

 

track bar

 

Track bar or wheel balance. Alignment will not cause a shimmy unless it WAY out of wack, but on a Jeep, something would have to be really bent up to cause the alignment to be off enough to cause a shimmy.
