Just bought 04 V8 SR5...need some help

[Hatterasurf]

This is my first post. I have had this truck for a week now and just got back from driving on the highway. Once I got up to 70mph the steering wheel starts to shake. It make the whole car vabrate. I'm think the alignment might be pulling alittle to the right. What do you guys think is the cause of the shaking? I have a full warrenty on the vehice, so I'm not to worry about the price. thanks in advice for the help guys. I'll post some pics soon.

shouldn't be anything to worry about. Most likely alignment and wheel balancing combo. I had the same problem, and I had to have a tie rod end replaced in order to do an alignment. That may have been causing it on mine, in conjunction with the needed alignment.

Did you have a pre-purchase inspection?

Tire wobble at speed is usually just the balance of the tires. Do that first. If the truck still seems to pull, then get the alignment (alignments are more expensive).

usually tires are crap and/or need balance. Can also be bad u joints in driveline.
