ok i know its a truck but its a ford and more people see things here than the truck forums... i have a 2002 ranger 2wd that shakes a little bit in the rear end, it get the worst between 60 and 70. the u joints seem fine and the wheels have been checked for balance and they arent bent... it only does it in the rear of the truck i dont feel the shake in the steering wheel or the front at all but the bed shakes and the pass seat shakes...anyone have any ideas or mayB have any thing i could look at to help me figure this out...the truck seems that it has never been hit before so i dont think it would be frame damage..thanks for all the replies

 

anyone? any people with a sim prob? anything???

 

might be a broken belt in your tire ....

 

wouldnt it bot be able to balance tho?

 

I've balance bad tires with a broken belt, but it only last for a short time. However, you usually feel a broke belt around 15- 25 mph. It smooths out at upper speeds. You can take the rears off and put them on the front. See if the shake moves to the front. If so, something in the rims or tires. If not, at least you ruled that out.

 

well i changed the rear tire that might have been bad they said they had to re balance it out so maybe it was it i drove it last night but i couldnt fully get to 60 or too much past but we will see today..it worke dout last night

 

you can balance an egg but you can't make it round.

 

thats pretty funny, the spare tire didnt help at all...i guess ill try and see if i can get ahole of some other tires and then if that doesnt help just figure something out

 

So you changed the tire, no luck, and put a whole new wheel and tire on, and no luck also?

 

pretty much i changed the tire that had to be balanced again and put on my spare(full size) and still nothing but it actually starts to shake at 40 now instead of 60 but i havnt gotten to try it any faster to see what happens...
