I got a new vibe...

I've got a new vibration coming through steering wheel and gas pedal.  I would describe it as harmonic because the vibration is so fast.  It makes my hands tingle when driving. mmmm tingle....

It started after Fish East... 

Drivers side wheel bearing was shot (second time in 6 months and under warranty).  Passanger side still feels good so I didn't change it. Rear drive shaft also went and has been redone.  Vibration happens even when the front drive shaft is out. I've run it a week with out the front shaft in.  I rotated the tires and that helped somewhat.

I start to feel it between 40 and 70 kmh during acceleration.

What should I check next?  I did a quick check of the ball joints on the drivers side and didn't feel anything but then again, I don't know what a bad ball joint feels like...

Thx

Problem solved.  Just need to get rid of those fantastic Truxus tires.   

For sale:  four 35's; 60% wear that cause nasty vibrations.

My favorite tires.

Give me a shout if you are looking for some Toyo's Kev.

Otherwise, Noel strongly recommends the MTR Kevlar.

Will do Bill.  And yes - Toyo's are the plan...

[JackstandJohnny]

I was patiently waiting for the "TOYO PIMP" to chime in.  TA-DAA! I knew you couldn't resist taking a knock at those Trxus(redheaded half-brother of the Thornturd)tires.
You can't go wrong with the Open Country's Kev, but be different. Give some consideration to the Goodyear Mt-R Kevlars . Robin loaned a set to his brother-in-law last weekend. He was pleased with them.
