Ok I have searched the board to see if anyone had already post this question before and I can't seem to find it. I am sure it is here somewhere.
Ok I have a shake when I drive it is not that bad, but others that ride with me say it is not like it was from when I first bought it. Below is what I have done to the truck since I bought it.
I have a Ram 2500 4X4 Mega Cab Diesel
I have added 2' coil spacers in the front to level it out, **** Cepek 35X 12.50R20LT Fun Country Tires along with Mickey Thompson rims I have attached a picture.
I have also added for my enjoyment a HornBlaster Shocker Train Horn. I like to let people know I am at their house from a mile away.
Ok back to my issue. I went to talk to a local 4X4 Suspension store today and told the owner and the techs what was going on with my truck. I took it over there as I got a new air compressor for my horns as the compressor that was on it died. (I guess I use the horn too much) They said that I needed to put a 4" lift on it as the spacers are causing a weird angle on the front end and that is why I am having the vibrations. It made sense on what he was saying and he suggested several different options, but what he said the best would be is to add a 4" Superlift with 5100 Series Bilstein Shocks and a Steering Stabilizer Dual 5100 Series Bilstein. So he said that the steering stabilizer is not a must. To be honest I brought up the steering stablizer as I have a buddy of mine that added one to his truck and he said it sure helps. Is this something that would fix the problem as I don't want to just start throwing parts at my truck to see if it fixes the truck. I want it done right. I have other friends that take their jeeps and trucks to this place and trust the place, but I wanted to get you alls thoughts on it as well.
Also, it is about 3 grand to get it all done and as I look up and priced it all out that seems about right as I would not tackle this project as I have never done it before and I don't have all the tools to do it with so that price includes all the labor as well.
Also, if you are wondering about putting a train horn on your truck it is the best money spent. My wife loves riding with me and if she sees someone texting and driving she lets them know to get off the phone. Nothing drives me more crazy then when someone forgets that they are driving and is on their phone texting or checking FB. Pull over if it is that important. Ok I will get off my soap box about that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated to the vibrations.
