probably a combination of crappy shocks, stock control arms, and driveline vibrations.

I have the cheap white tube shock, and is it because the stock lower control arms are weak?

^ Like he said ^, to out of balance tires or over inflated ones. Have you looked for something loose under the dash. I have the same lift no problems even when the new cheap shocks were new that came with kit.


The control arms upper and lower aren't weak but the bushings may be bad in both as many are, aftermarket one are cheap if you want them. Buy adj. ones if you ever plan on a higher lift.


You should fill out your User CP so people can help you better knowing what you have.
