im still getting a pretty good amount of shaking in the steering wheel.
i've replaced the following parts

1.pitman arm.
2.idler arm.
3.steering stablizer/shock.

this fixed alot of my inital steering wheel vibration but i still have some, and don't think it's normal. what else or where else should i look.

balljoints? tie rod ends?
wheel bearings....

 

unbalanced tires.....

 

i will head to this shop and have my tires balanced, but i recently had the driver front balanced because i knew for a fact the weight wasn't on the rim

 

warped rotors, incorrect caster, bent rim, out-of-round tire(s), cat/dog/jeep stuck in tread

 

post the results of your front end alignment, they should have given you a print out....alignment done right

 

when i replaced all the parts i got the front aligned the guy said everything was spot on. i don't think i have the printouts... errr.. i wouldn't think it was a warped rotor, that would only cause shaking when stopping.

so the only things i can think of is replacing the tie rod ends, and balljoints before i take my truck to toyota to get the steeringrods replaced because of the recall. this will give me a free alignment. =) lol

might as well use the recall to my advantage.

 

free alignment at the dealer...very cool, smart man

hope you get the gremlins solved...it can be a PITA chasing them buggers sometimes

 

Start with the simplest thing first - alignment + balance.

Let us know what happens.
