#11 of 14 2000 Ford Ranger XLT 4X4, Violent vibration in front end by alexz77
Nov 28, 2010 (8:53 pm)
I just bought this truck 2 weeks ago. Have had no problems so far.. However, while driving today (about 65mph, turning on an on ramp), I felt a violent vibration in the steering wheel. I pulled over as it continued to shake, I started back out and all was fine, tried shaking the steering wheel.. still no more vibration. As I was pulling back into my driveway (Again, a sharp turn), I noticed that it felt like the front differential was locking up. It felt like one of my tires was slipping, though they are new and I don't see any uneven wear.I had previously been hearing a hum, so this morning before all of this happened I put the car up on jacks to check the wheel bearing assembly and I couldn't find any slop when shaking the wheel at all.
One of my thoughts is it could be a CV shaft? Or something in the front differential itself
Anyone else have an idea of what could cause this?
Thanks!

Had the very same problem. Take a look at your anti sway bar ends. Mine were wore out and when I replaced them(which was a snap) problem was solved.
