Default weird happening when turning at high speeds.

Guys, here's another question I was meaning to ask, but it happens very rarely and I keep forgetting. But it happened last night and here it goes....

ONLY when taking tightly curved off-ramps or overpassat highway speeds, and as said this rarely happens, I get the same noise and feeling ( shake)in the steering as one would get if driving on those tracks on the side of highways that are meant to wake up a sleepy driver if he gets out of line ( or a gravel roadfeeling)you know...RRRRRRRRRR only when turning the steering. Thought it could be ACE related ( fluid changed last year), orfront axle or CVbut it only happens once in a while and on the situations discribed above ????


WTH ??????

How many miles on your truck?
Sounds like a tiie rod end or one of the steering componet ends. Have you ever replaced your steering stabilizer?

58000 miles, I know my upper left tie rod end was a bit loose last year and although not alarming per the say of the alignment specialist, it was a year ago so it could have loosened up some more. The front stabiliser is a OME that I installed at the same time as my OME suspension last year. I checked it for thightness and all is O.K.


I'll look into that tie-rod thing,

Many thanks.
