    Just done the same thing this past weekend with the vibratech damper and balance ring. Made a very noticeable difference in this old Cat.

    just get a bag of recycled golf balls at walmart keep in truck .put 3 golf balls in every tire on truck.i guarantee the tires will wear smooth as a babys bottom unless they are structurally compromised. this will save you lots money, keep tires inflated. if some tireman laughs, thats ok, he wants y.our tires wear out he makes money selling tires. been using golfers over 15 years..you couldnt give me a set of centramatics. period. beads and sand outa question 2

    mostly concerned with drveshafts being reinstalled correctly after u joint or yoke repair, that means the drive shafts are " in time" per say. Not one notch off

    3 golf balls per tire work great, even on the steer. Better than centramatic cause the balancing effect is transmitted to where the rubber meets the road and not remotely mounted on a HUB.
    centramatic might mean centrifugal? huh...so 3 golf balls spinning farther out on the radius may be more effective .... get you transmission torque screw adjusteds 2.
