I just bought a used 05 F150 Screw with 27,XXX odo, and the only thing the previous owner did with the truck is pull his 32' boat to the lake. Well, since I bought it, i've put about 500 miles on it and I've rotated and balanced the tires (35x12.50/18) twice to get rid of a Front-End/Steering Wheel vibration. Nothing seems to help. Does anybody seem to think or know that I might need to install a single or dual piston steering damper or not. I've had plenty of lifted trucks before in my life, but I've never had ths problem...or could it be something with the R & P?

I'm thinking the added weight may have caused excessive heat build up and worped the rotors. You can have them turned.

At what speed is the vibration occuring?
you may need to have the tires road forced balanced not just balanced with road force balancing they can tell if a tire is to heavy to balance correctly even though it may balance. it still could be heavy causing the vibration........ just a thought

ok guys...just bought an explorer pro comp dual stablizer. I'll probably put it on after work tomarrow, and we'll see what happens. If it doesn't help...oh well.

Well, s*%t! After ordering the stabilizer, I found out that it wount fit my truck unless I purchase the suspension lift also. The stabilizer I ordered was an accessory option to the lift. Well...$2,300 later...im waitin to pay my credit card off before I order all of it.
