I have this violent front end shake on my F-150, The tie rod end was terrible and you could move the tire from side to side. I replaced that but the problem is still there. Is it possible the alignment is off so far it's shaking? I think the tire is bowed out so could that be it? I'm getting it aligned tomorrow anyways but I'm wondering if that's the only proble

Re: Aligment

I've feel your pain I went through a year of that problem. Most Likely just alignment. If it continues it might be your tire is out of round now. Thats what mine did once it wore enough.

I'm getting it aligned tomorrow and if it's still bad I'm throwing the tries back on the back and letting it ride

How long have you rode on the tires like this? Its possible the tires are cupped badly. You probably want to check the ball joints too.

Alignment is a good start. It should let you know if anything else in the suspension is worn, bent, etc.

So after tie rod, balancing, rotating, aligment, and more balancing I found the problem. I rotated the tires on the drivers side a bam problem gone. Bad tire, nitto trail grappler with 15k miles... Fml, but no shaking lol

Glad you found it out man. I got rid of a good truck because of mine. :lol: Figured out after I bought my gf some new pro comps and had the same problem it was the tires. FML.
