if its not your wheels out of balance could be the panhard rod bushes, replace the bolt while your there, it gets fairly chewed out.

Hi Mongrelrover,

i have 35" Simex Extremes Centerpede on a Range Rover and none shakes.

Balancing the tyres and checking all bushes and the drive shaft should fix the prob.


Greetings

I had a bad head shake in my classic rangie. After replacing all bushes panard, radius arm still did not fix it. Ended up being swivel hub preload was not right. :x

Yep, check your preload and also your steering dampener. Also, have a look at your wheel bearings...they might need tightening.

9 times out of 10 its the panhard bushes, they cost sweet f a so start there, if you get the super pro poly bush ones $28 a set, you don't need a press to install them, you can do it in a vice but you need a hand doing it.
