BucketTrucker688 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 I have a 97 tri axle dump, the driver says he can feel a shake in the front end while braking only. He claims after I put a new set of 315 firestone steer tires on he started noticing it and seems to be getting worse. Any ideas? I wouldn't the front drums would ever get hot enough to warp but maybe I'm wrong.

BucketTrucker688 Posted October 9, 2020 Author Share Posted October 9, 2020 Shook it down, found the wheel bearing was loose on the driver's side, we will see if that fixes it.

doubleclutchinweasel Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I have also seen worn out kingpins cause a shake. Quote "Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines."
