What Causes Severe Cabin Vibration in a Truck at 80 MPH?
1 Answers
Truck cabin vibrating severely at 80 MPH can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. Wheel Rim Deformation: Generally caused by violent external impacts, wheel rim deformation is more likely to occur in vehicles with lower tire profile ratios. The solution involves repairing or replacing the wheel hub. 2. Tire Imbalance: Some owners neglect wheel balancing after tire removal/installation, leading to steering wheel vibration at high speeds. This can typically be resolved by performing tire dynamic balancing at a tire shop. 3. Drive Shaft Deformation: When collisions occur, hard object scratches happen, drive shaft bolts loosen, or when the intermediate bearing and damping rubber bushings wear out causing drive shaft twisting deformation, the shaking sensation becomes particularly noticeable during vehicle acceleration.
