I have the same #### problem. That passenger side cabinet had been shacking from the day one. And I got a truck only with 18miles on it. Have no idea what to do . That sound makes me sick.
Any ideas ??
Thanks!! -
That little panel at the top comes off be careful you don't break the pins I just pull out the same way you pull off the door panel in car. Its easier to get to the bolts this way.
My previous crapcadia it was the drivers side had to re tighten once a week. -
The problema
You need to slide the fifth wheel to center the load between the rear axles.
I was pulling a dry van and when I switch to a step deck my truck start bouncing like crazy... till I move the fifth wheel. -
That’s not even close to being the truth! The reason why those trucks you mentioned are so expensive is because some guys like the chrome and side air cleaners! Supply and demand is what they call it! Some like the CAT engines and those trucks are becoming harder to find by the day. Freightliner Trucks are work trucks...light and fuel efficient. That’s why I bought one! I get great fuel mileage and it doesn’t shake or rattle! I go through the whole truck and tighten bolts so if you take good care of it the truck will take care of you! I just recently put Centramatics on the steers and I am getting an even better ride now. If you want to make money and not interested in all the chrome, lights and other bells and whistles the choice is obvious!

If your such a kompurtgod can you please explain why your trying to talk to someone that hasn't posted on this tread or even this site in years.

I know this is a very old thread, but I was having the same issue with vibrations going down the road. Search YouTube for “Freightliner Cascadia excessive vibrations” and “Freightliner Cascadia after tru-balance installation. The videos are before and after it was fixed. It was absolutely impossible to sleep while the codriver was driving. It is a 2016 Freightliner Cascadia. I can’t guarantee this will fix everyone’s vibration issues, but it fixed mine.

That's right, all freight pays the same. You don't get payed more cause you drive an expensive truck. It's a work truck. When I want comfort I get in my 2019 C43 AMG or look out my window with a ocean view. I'm not trying to look good in pissy truck stop. I'm sorry.

I have a 2000 Century and it vibrated also , until I replaced all the truck and trailer shocks and my drive shaft carrier bearing .
