Front End Vibration 2009 F-150
Last Night I went camping with a buddy of mine, it had been raining for a few days and the area to get out to the campsite was pretty soft. Long story short my truck sunk in a soft spot and after about 20 minutes in 4 low I got it out. I always do a thorough job cleaning it after any type of offloading: all suspension components gets power washed as well as the outer body. However, after this washing my truck's front end started vibrating above 65 mph. I have no idea why. Does anybody have any experience with this, and if so how did you fix it? I would rather an at home fix than a shop fix. Any help is appreciated.

Probably mud inside the rims. Some rims it is nearly impossible to get all the mud out without taking the tires off. I had a Jeep Liberty once that was like that. Every time you got it muddy you would have to take all 4 tires off on the driveway and wash the mud off. Worth a look anyway.

i'd say the same thing. mud stuck somewhere behind the wheel that is throwing the balance off just like a wheel weight would. pull the wheels and clean them off, also might be useful to look at the half shafts in the front and the drive shaft as well to make sure something isn't stuck
