Hey all,
Last week my Lade started to shimmy. It feels like it is coming from the drivers side more. It happens when I am driving down the road. Any ideas as to what this could be? I know if it does this when I hit the brakes it is probably time for new pads or rotors. It is still the same issue if it is while driving? I also noticed my alignment is out so could this cause this "shimmy". Thanks!

If you are getting any brake pulse then usually your rotors are warpped and need to be cut or replaced, but I would start with a good front end alignment and get your wheels road forced balanced, what a difference with road force balancing. :)

If it is not not that jack up your truck and check the wheel bearing. You might have a bad one..

You may have hit the curb, knocked off a wheel weight and damaged the suspension.
