kind of like the wobbles...but there is no wobble.
everytime i drive my 2001 explorer up to 65 mph (so the speedo says) the truck begins shaking and vibrating horribly. i just drove back from jacksonville to tampa and the vibrations and shaking were out of control. the faster i go past 65mph the more the truck shakes. i have 31x11.50's on the back and when i got the truck aligned they said the rear tires cant be aligned so that could be the problem. i also had the tires balanced at the same time of alignment which was less than 4k miles ago.
i have to drive home to virginia in a few weeks so i need to get this fixed by then. i have no idea whats causing the shake because it doesnt do it at low speeds. i thought maybe a u-joint is worn or a driveshaft is bent but wouldnt that cause the truck to shake all the time?
any input is greatly appreciated.
thanks
