Seems if you cant figure stuff out on your own the shitty shops don't have a nickle in your truck and could care less other than to hang parts on your truck in an attempt to diagnosis the issue... I'm done throwing money away...work too damn hard to get it and want to make my investment last as long as possible.

That problem is directly related to how far your putting your foot into the fuel pedal and nothing else whatsoever. Especially if it is a random-ish type of "one odd, sharp-faced lug out of every so many lugs" kind of thing.

It is usually the most prevalent on the passenger front drive axle, and on the drivers rear one. This is because as the axle loads up with heavy torque, those are the two places that have the most twist in them.



There is no telling how many times I have climbed grapevine, or any other poorly maintained steep incline road, all the trucks passing me because they have their foot planted all the way to the goddamn floor,.. Literally, I see chunks of rubber flying off their drive tires because the morons have no clue that the rough, bumpy pavement of grapevine makes their tires bounce and throw rubber like mad,.. that odd, sharp-faced lug wear pattern is directly the result!.

keep your damn foot out of it and it will not be so bad. That is not alignment issues. that is not shock issues,.. that is driver issues!

-- i can walk across a truck-stop parking lot and tell you how people drive and/or abuse their trucks just by looking at their tires.
