Still in the break in stage here but I've noticed my front wheels are really wobbly and it actually causes the whole body to shake at higher speeds. Not expecting perfection as I know these wheels ain't balanced but this here is excessive.


Should I reseat the bead-locks.... Looks horrible while I'm running it.

Sounds like your front bearings are gone. Check the back one's too.

Trucks new. Tank and a half ran through it all on asphalt and never jumped.

Never had it over half throttle.

Could be your foams, as well. They tend to wear out quickly.

Yeah no possible wear. Still breaking in.

Toe looks ok, going to swap front and rears when I get a chance to pinpoint suspension or tire issue.
 
Make sure the beadlocks are seated correctly.

I use the Silverback beadlocks. I had problems with the tires blowing out of the beadlocks. This was solved by taping the foams and adding the Silverbacks.

Taping foams. Home Depot. Gorilla tape. Three wraps on the foams. One on each side then one down the middle.

Check out some videos and you can see now the tires expand. They look like CD's mounted on rims.
 
I haven't been able to troubleshoot due to extreme winter weather. Thanks for all the tips, will start with simplest fixes till its resolved. :cool:
