In need of pro help...

Postby HiluxSamana on Mon, 12 Sep 2016 6:33 +0000

I own a hilux 4x4, 3d. 2014. Lifted it ro 3"
Radflo shocks
Total Chaos triangles
BFgoodrich ko2 32"

(my english is not native. Originally dutch but living in the Dominican Republic) so sometimes it will sound a bit strange.

Wheels balanced, tires checked, etc, etc. new brake disks. Always maintenance.

When i brake the car starts to shake, like an imbalance. The area where i live has mountains.

So driving up the mountains with asphalted roads. After that going down and shakes quit bad. When i am on a normal flat part a lot less. The steer shakes, not the brake pedal.

Somebody any idea.

3" lift could easily have created negative caster, which wouldn't help, but on it's own probably wouldn't be an issue.

If you have changed the offset of you wheels by much, and perhaps even have negative offset; that plus negative caster, plus the heavier wheels and tyres, plus maybe a worn bush or a something loose, could cause all sorts wobbles and vibrations.

thanx. Caster is ok as well. Until now found nothing worn out. Wheels are the originals. Tires are more heavy, correct.

Is it just when braking ?

Get your front rotors machined.

Does your brake peddle bounce up/down when braking?
If so get you rotors checked, even know they are new they could be misaligned or not on probley,

I to would say caster, you may have that and camber mixed up
Do you get a print out when the alignment was done, try post a pic,

Did you fit a front diff drop as well with sway bar relocate?
farting is alot like jxxxxxg off. both provide instant gratification, but neither is a long term solution to the actual problem......................
