Lmao. I wanted to put a pun in the title... Anyways, my ass end likes to bounce up and down. Tires are balanced, and there's no noises coming from the axle or wheels, so the bearings are good. I'm thinking it'd be the tires being so poorly worn. Anybody wanna second this? If not, what else could it be? It seems to just be the passenger side, not as much the driver's side. I'm really thinking it'd be the tires, because it had a bounce since I bought it. Another thing.... It only really does it between 35-40 mph and at highway speeds it's noticeable. And when I say noticeable, I mean the entire freakin truck shakes up and down. Soooo, ****ty tires? Errrrr.....?

it's more than likely a combination of the tread wear and the tires are probably out of balance...

mine did that really bad for a bit and it also pulled hard to the right. I went to a good tire guy and he rebalanced them and then put them on in a different order so the two inside worn ones werent on the same side. It's worked wonders. Zero pull nowand only a little shaking at highway speeds

Well, I'm getting new tires in a few weeks, so if it's them I'll live with it. If not, then it needs to be corrected. My tires are worn terribly on the inside, not sure what from, but they're bald on the inside and new on the outside. And not to mention unevenly worn on the same tread row.

they are either worn from bad alignment out of balance bad hubs.... any thing in the front end off can cause some tire wear.... a couple things off at the same time ends up in bad tire wear....

I just got an alignment today. Driver's side camber is 2*40' and the passenger side is 1*47' AFTER alignment. The alignment actually worsened the camber problems I've been having. I don't think it'd be from the tbars, since it would be about the same on both sides if it was... I know that's contributing. Ball joints are fine, hubs are new, basically have a brand new axle now. New diff and CV's as well. So Idk if this helps at all in figuring it out.

Yeah lol I'm pretty sure it is. I just wish I had another set I could throw on temporarily to see if it is...
