sup guys its winter and when i get in the snow in 4x4 the truck runs great except when i do turns it starts shaking left and right, is it normal or is it my front axle ujoint that are done?? it only happens in 4x4. I have the V6 with electric shift.
Thanks guys

this is becuase the front has auto hubs and are both engaged and you turning means one wheel spins faster then the other thus binding them up and it shakes to fix it. its very bad for your diff so only keep the truck in auto unless in deep snow like 4 inches +

ok, sounds good, thanks for the info, so nothing to worry about, thats good, i'll use the 4x4 only in hardcore conditions. Thanks guys
