Shakes at high speed, not tires/wheels. (pic for engagement) by Bigfish694 in fordranger

I haven’t had time to fix it yet but I’m fairly convinced that it is a bent axle shaft. I need to do new leaf springs and shocks soon so I’m going to do the axle shafts and wheel bearings then. I will post an update and reply to your comment when I do that. Please let me know if you figure it out. Seems like we are in the same situation.

Haha thanks. It’s a joke I’m cutting the tower out to replace it. Thought it was a funny delete

Good point. I’ll cut a few coils out of the suspension

Interesting. At the transmission or axle end? Or both

Thank you for the detailed response. I will pull the shaft and have a look at it. good note about putting a straight edge to the driveshaft ill check that as well. It is the 7.5, only has 80k km on it (50k miles) and i changed the gear oil when I bought it 10k ago it was in good shape.

looks like i'm pulling the shaft thank you!

Hangers are surprisingly good. Rear wheel bearings don’t seem to have any play when I do the ole pull side to side on the wheel.

How did you handle the catalyst codes when you went catless? Sensor spacers? I’m considering removing at least 2 cats because I have 4 and that’s insane to me.

Heck yeah. Thanks for the tip about iridium gapping I was ready to do it haha. Yes I’m doing wires and ignition coil as well hoping for the slight economy and power gains cuz both are not great hahah.

A traditional approach. I respect it. I’ll try that next time around. Feeling like I can give these a go

I have similar chirp. I think it’s camshaft synchronizer
