Allen, I am pretty sure you will be surpised as I was. Anyways, apart from the hassle, checking/balancing my drums came out free as Pep Boys will re-balance your tire/wheels practically forever if you bought them there. Funny thing, actually the cure for the cause was the cheapest of them...

Me too! :drool: I like crane trucks. Super useful.

Guys! I finally nailed the problem!!! OUT OF BALANCE DRUMS!! Or I should say, really bad manufacturing QC. Let me tell my story to guys who will definitively understand this relief. I went today to my local Pep Boys joint and asked the service manager that I wanted to balance my truck's...

Ok Allen, I will find the cure and let you know. Although it might not fit your particular truck. BUT, since the symptoms and the treatment has been SO similar, I guess we are finally cornering the culprit. I am trying to find in my mind if I ever changed these drums with aftermarket (cheapo)...

I will be performing further testing this Thursday. Yes, I found out that brake drums may be balanced on a tire/wheel balancing machine. It just has to be set to static mode to perform the task. I will find out if my local Pep Boys has such setting on their machines. I am almost convinced...

Tell me, this CTIS is only for the front tires? I don't see how a tire valve would fit on the rears.:shock: Take good care of my toys. Don't let them get cold at night and give them TLC now and then.:mrgreen:

Hey ColdWarrior, thanks for the correction :) WM, I told you it looked huge. Especially with the cargo cover. Looks like you have a whole GI motorpool there...good fun. I thank God for all these little things that give us hapiness. Even if it is once in a while. It is good to see us...

BTW, has anyone here tried those Counteract balancing beads that you put inside your tire and allegedly balance your tire/wheel forever? Sounds interesting but would like more info before trying them. I understand this technique is familiar with semi-trailers.

I have been working in a very similar problem on my stock '99 Dodge Ram 2500 w/Cummins. I have changed to new stock size tires, new stock wheels, new shocks and the hop is there all the time at around 50-55 MPH. I checked with a vibration monitor Android app on my smartphone and pinpointed the...

I guess FUBAR stands for F**Ked Up Beyond Any Repair?rofl

Ok, I am glad you guys had another fun-filled recovery. [thumbzup] Holy crap! That M927 sure looks huge! (I guess it is because it is huge) :doh:. Thanks for all your help. I imagine I might be your fartest away recovery customer!! 8-) More pics will be swell :popcorn:

What do you guys use the WMO for? Running a multi fuel engine? I did not know that could be done.

Gee, super nice & interesting info. I would bet anything that the wheels are those of a Land Rover.

Ok, Thanks! Your response has been great. I will be contacting Wreckerman today to speak the details. I am very grateful of having joined this forum as I am practically a beginner. Yes, I was pretty sure these two 5 ton could be fitted on a 45 or 48 ft. trailer but apparently the freight company...

Hi, this is my first post here at SS. Thanks for letting me in. I would greatly appreciate if anyone can refer me to a person or business that could help me pick up 2 ea. M931s tractors at Huntsville, AL. I guess everybody has needed this type of help specially when located very far away from...
