Pete, if your truck is wandering or you feel like you are having to work the steering wheel too much to stay in your lane, try lowering the steer tires to 105 when they are warm. Not hot, just good and warm. That 5 pounds can make a huge difference in the driving.

 

The tires are warm. I had em set at 100 didn't like em. Set em all to 110 rides better. I do notice a little wobbling in steering when I hit breaks

 

Define wobble. Does it pull left or right, or does it feel like the tires suddenly became egg shaped, or something else?

 

Pulls to left when I brake and steering wheel shakes.

 

I have 56k miles, but in my defense, 37k miles Jan thru June and 19k miles July thru Nov. Next year my numbers should be closer to yours. 56k made me tired.

A point of interest, my fuel discount has come to .357 cents per gallon for the year or 5 and 1/2 cents a mile for my 6.424MPG average for the year.

 

Yeah, I'm at home and back in bed. I'm only getting the award for the day, you guys get it for the year

 

First thing to check is to make sure the leftand right brakes are adjusted the same amount. Do that and see if it corrects the issue. Didn't you just have a front wheel seal changed? Bet ya they didn't adjust the brakes right after putting it all back together.

 

We need a new slogan.
