YOU SHOULD START BY NOT YELLING AT US!

We need a wee bit more information to help you out, but start simple first. Try taking it to the dealer and tell them it's vibrating.

Sorry for the YELLING the vibration only happens for about five or ten minutes, when i first start driving and then it goes away. It happens at all speeds 0-70, the dealer to me it was just the way the fx4 suspension is set up and their is nothing wrong. Thanks RG

You could take your truck in to have your wheels checked to see if they are still in balance.

I used to have a good shake in the steering wheel and when I went to have a flat tire repaired they checked the balance in all 4 tires and one was out of balance and not the one I had the flat fixed suprisingly.

There are weights on both sides of the wheel so you could have lost one of the inside if it doesnt look like you lost one from the outside.

Hope that helps.
