Hi, definitely check all the steering components & alignment. I've found when I've been 4-wheeling that mud sometimes gets inside the wheel rim and throws the balance off, and it may also be as a result of cupped thread in the tires. An easy way to tell if its the tires is to swap the front and rears. if the steering wheel shakes its the front tires, if the whole truck shakes its the rear.

Check the condition of your tires and suspension. this problem is usually caused by bad component or alignment. Special attention is given to camber and caster.

I have a 2001 ford 7.3 crew cab truck has a bad vibration at 40 mph have changed all u joints and carrier bearing had rear end checked trans fluid changed still there any ideas what might be

tires are the number one problem for highway speed vibration (assuming your engine is running ok).

Have them balanced and rotated and have them check the roundness (or lack thereof) while the tire and wheel are on the computerized wheel balancer.

1994 toyota pickup rattles at low speeds (~15-19 mph).

Check for loose heat shields the cover the exhaust. I find this is the source of many rattles. They are made of sheet metal and if they are not clip or tightened down the low vibration frequency when the car is running at slow speed will cause them the hit the exhaust pipe/ front mainfold.

Right front shimmy at low speeds, 25 to 40 mph. Replaced front wheel brake pads but was not able to remove the right rotor from hub although it was loose from lug bolts. Steering slightly left and right...

Since you can make it better by unloading the tire a little I would suspect a wheel bearing. You also may just have a bad ball joint. Also if the tires were just rotated and you developed the problem you may have a defective tire.

Shimmy upon acceleration

The buses I work on tend to shimmy when one or more of three things occur. 1) the alignment is off. 2) the tires are worn uneven 3) the tires have worn and now need to be balanced. The first thing I would do is take it and have a four wheel balance and check the alignment.
