G'day all,
A year or so since last post - been busy Patrolling...
My vehicle has travelled 395,000 klm and is stock standard. All steering and suspension components original, apart from springs, shocks and steering damper.
80% of travel is black top or dirt roads - no beach.
Just had a set of Maxxis 751's fitted - good tyres and balanced well. However, vehicle has a shimmy which has been impossible to balance out, and just recently there have been two episodes of violent steering wheel shake, induced by braking whilst travelling down a steepish blacktop. Is this shake what I have read in the forums as "death shake"?
Where do I start to fix this?
