A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
I inherited this vehicle and just started driving regularly this week. Just fine around town but then I went to Denver, from Colorado Springs on I-25 when it started. I noticed a mild shaking about 60 - 70 m/h depending whether concrete or asphalt. There is a section of interstate that the speed limit is 65 and is concrete. I've been told that they pull waves in the concrete to prevent vehicles from speeding. I noticed a rougher ride in my other vehicles but not too bad. In this Ford, the truck started bouncing, I felt like a little boy bouncing on grandpa's knee. This happen between 55 - 80, after trying to find a speed which the bouncing was minimal a settled in around 60 - 70. Once the interstate returned to asphalt the bouncing minimized again.
The same thing happen on the return trip and again going up the next day. The return trip was different. While still in Denver on I-25 asphalt section (traveling at 50-55 m/h) I hit a series of ripple/waves in the roadway and instantly the truck started shaking so bad I thought the read axle was coming off.
My 24 year old son told after it went away that it was "Death Wobble" he had that exact experience in his 6.5 inch lifted Jeep. When it started is just let off the gas and held the wheel straight until we dropped to 40, put EM flasher on and started breathing again. Two lines of thoughts were, 1) the truck had no load and maybe it needs heavy weight in the rear to stabilize the suspension 2) something on the suspense broke off and I feared the axle would fall off. I haven't checked it yet but ran across this website and the problems and they seem to be spot on. Now what?
