the 1/2ton suspension is not engineered or
designed for the Weight of the 3/4 (1 ton)
6.5wheels & 9.00x16 tires and any increase
in unsprung mass creates problems on any
vehicle
front wheel shimmy (low speed) aka front wheel tramp causes are low or uneven air tire
pressure, loose linkage, worn out (soft) springs, irregularties in tire tread, & uneven or incorrect camber
you might have 2 people (in the same car/truck) drive in front of you (one driving) the other watching (or even using a
video camera) the front of your truck when
you hit a bump - then you will know exactally what the tires/wheels are doing
