I was driving down I-85 yesterday and my 96 Explorer 2wd felt as if it was shaking left and right, with a little vibration. You have to get over 55 or 60. The faster you go, the worse it gets. Feels as if I might lose control.
I was on I-85 last month and this wasn't going on.
I checked my tire pressure and looked around at my steering components. Nothing appeared to be broken or non functioning.
The shocks are about 1-1/2 years old. The lower balljoints are about a year old. The sway bar links are about 8 months old.
I don't think it is the wheel bearings, but you never know.
What are the symptoms of bad wheel bearings? inner tie rod ends? outer tie rod ends? upper ball joint?
