Help! I have no real idea why, but at highway speeds I can feel every bump in the road. My commute is 20 miles at 70 mph. While the roads arent great, I feel myself getting beat up while driving.
My truck is a 96 2 door yukon with 182,000 miles. I have a 3" body lift and 295/75/r16 Nitto Terra Grapplers on stock wheels. Ranch rs 5000 shocks that are a couple of years old. Ball joints replaced a few years sgo as well. Front torsion bars cranked just enough to level the front end.
I know the shocks arent the best, the t bars being cranked doesnt help, and I'm driving a short wheelbase 18 year old truck, but these vibrations and bumps Im feeling all the time make me want to get rid of the truck. Has anyone experienced anything like this and can give me an idea what to start looking for? I thought it was the aftermarket wheels at first, so I switched back to stockers. Not much improvement. I've heard the Nittos are hard to balance. Any truth to that? Just need a place to start.
