    Hello,
    My trucks front end has started shaking. At first it would slightly shake when you started to slow down. Now in addition to that at times when driving it will start shaking.
    Any idea what this is? Was thinking maybe the wheel barrings or maybe upper control arm. Help!!
    Any ideas??
    Please let me know any help would be appreciated

    Is this happening with the brake being applied or without? (Or both)

    Starts when being applied then when let off the brake it slacks. And then through traffic I can let off the gas and it will start shaking before brake is applied.

    Are your rotors warped or bent? How are the pads?

    The pads are in good shape. The rotors were replaced a year ago. Was leaning towards brakes but not now. They are good

    Any idea what could be going on? Where would be an ideal
    Place to take it and have it looked at besides a dealership?

    You can check the play by jacking up the truck. The side you are checking will need to be lifted off the ground grab the tire horizontally pull and push the wheel if play here it’s most likely tie rod, now do same process with hands placed vertical and push pull if movement here it’s going to be wheel bearings. I think Chris fix on YouTube has a video explaining this. Good luck

    Tire rotation, front to back see if it’s goes away. That will tell you if your tire is out of balance or rim are bent.
    Check for stuck calipers or slide pin while you got the truck in the air
