    1991 K2500 SAS death wobble

    Caster is within 4-5.5 degrees on either side, wobble is it all but gone (just a slight vibration now) with swapping to dually wheels. Still needs a steering shaft but I need to figure out whether a 93 grand Cherokee shaft is identical to a Cherokee or not. Never would've guessed that was the...

    1991 K2500 SAS death wobble

    It is absolutely gone now. After 3 years of chasing every loose component and replacing even questionable items it's hard to believe just a simple wheel change was the issue, was a little residual shaking but I will attribute that to bump steer with a bad rag joint and extremely hard tires...

    1991 K2500 SAS death wobble

    Yeah kicked the center of the tire out too far from kpi, guess too much scrub would've been easier to say but the word escaped me. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

    1991 K2500 SAS death wobble

    This is the third set of hubs. Went from ford SRW to ford DRW then just recently GM DRW outers. New king pins, bearings, races, seals, u joints, tires, shocks, tie rods, drag link, gear box. Got it gone almost entirely by getting rid of my Humvee wheels and running duallys up front. That much...

    1991 K2500 SAS death wobble

    That's the first thing I checked. Balance was good with the old set and balanced the new set I just put on a month ago. I was reading up on the pirate forum and saw a few threads saying caster and offset can cause this. Everything else in the front end either checks out or is new. I just don't...

    1991 K2500 SAS death wobble

    Yes, just installed new tires (2nd set since this problem started) with balance bags, first set had beads. SRW with spacers was hub centric, when DRW swapped the centers were machined out for hub center, and when I swapped GM DRW outers on with new king pins I lost the hub center and am now...

    1991 K2500 SAS death wobble

    Anybody ever deal with a real bad DW with 12 bolt military wheels and MTs? Rode like a dream with SRW hubs and 2" spacers for my 12 bolt wheels. Got rid of the hubs and spacers for DRW hubs and boom, death wobble up the waz. Been replacing bad parts left and right. New king pins, crossover, tie...

    SAS crossover steering

    So all you guys running factory gear boxes, what pitman arm and crossover tie rods are you running? Had nothing but problems trying to source replacement parts for this thing. Pitman arm is loose on the shaft (assuming it's out of a 90 f350) and the ball joint is loose at the pitman arm. Any...

    80s GM steering wheel on 91 Chevy

    After driving my 83 for several months I decided I like the wheel a lot more than my 91s. Will they swap out or no? If the wheels will not, will the steering columns swap without extensive electrical rewiring? Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
