97 Explorer Shake/Vibration @ 65+psycho_njm 02-08-2006, 01:47 AM Hey guys... I just bought this thing, like 6hrs ago. i drove it back to my house 175m away, all hwy. 0-60 the truck does fine, other than a little hesitation when accelerating, but i know how to fix that. at 65-80 the truck will start to vibrate and then shake and then smooth out again. and its constant the whole trip. the shake is not in the steering but in the "seat" and the vibration is in the whole truck. i want to know if i can rule out the front end as the problem area. the steering is super tight and no pull either way. tell me what ya think... i need to get this thing driveable for work thursday. Thanks.....:banghead: psycho_njm 02-08-2006, 05:08 PM Or would it be in the drive shaft? U-joint? any ideas? PJRaces11 02-09-2006, 11:58 AM could be a bad tire, Ujoint or the tires may just need to be balanced id go with a u joint have you checked them at all psycho_njm 02-10-2006, 12:02 AM tires are fine tread wise... but i haven't checked the balance but it hard to get that checked for a high speed vibration, thats why i ain't done that yet. but i will be able to get under it tomorrow and check the Drive shaft and u joint. thanx though... psycho_njm 02-26-2006, 11:48 AM Changed 2 rear tires and cured the shake. i appearantly had some busted belts in both tires. If anyone else has same problems, be sure to check for FLAT spots or bulges in the tires. Thanks for everyones input. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
