Feels like my driver side rear wheel is hopping while doing 65-85mph. Everything in my backseat will shake for a minute and then smooth out, then repeat. I just got new tires, 5" rear block and traction bar relocation kit for my 2.5" level kit. Truck shook before install. Any ideas... Or places to start.

Had two shops look at front end, both found no issues...one mechanic said tie rod ends just starting to go. Didn't even recommend replacing ...:biggun:

These trucks can be tough to diagnose that stuff. From my experience it's usually a combination of things. On my 6.4 it was the ball joints and the track bar. Replaced the ball joints, improved but didn't go away, replaced the track bar, got a lot better, put a Fox damper on, like new.

On my excursion it was a wheel bearing. Which I discovered after replacing everything else...

My 09 did that same thing. Found my wheel weights on the right rear fell off. Had all 4 tires rebalanced and everything is good again.
