    • @matthewreed379
      @matthewreed379 2 місяці тому

      Mine snapped going over a series of bumps, going 35-40 started bouncing and "Snap". It looked to be partially cracked for awhile, but it wasn't where I could see it, because it was underneath the top spring. I would reccomend jacking up both sides even if you're doing only one side, (that would have made mine a little easier going back together).

    Did it help with the shake ?

    • @MatthewReedTrucking
      @MatthewReedTrucking Рік тому

      It helped with that shake yes. You could feel it thru the steering wheel with your finger tips. I replaced both wheels and got an alignment and it wears evenly now. I have another truck that the alignment was off, and one steer tires cupped, but also cupped worse halfway around the tire, I got it a new tire and alignment, and with very slight pressure on the steering wheel I could feel it shake thru steering wheel (even with the new tire). So I replaced that wheel as well and that shake went away. Once I had the tire off, I rolled that wheel across a concrete floor and it clanked and banged around when it hit the bent spots.

      I'll have to look and see if I made any videos. They're pretty simple, if all goes well. The passenger side was easy! But my drivers side, I had to remove the bracket off of the block, because the metal part of the bushing, rusted to the bolt. Being there with the computer and fuel lines, I didn't see a good way to cut the bolt off. Just get all you're bolts started thru the frame, before you let the motor down, and you should be good!
