Well i think i may have discovered the problem on my truck. This weekend i was fitting some tire chains on my truck to prepare for a deer hunt this coming weekend. When doing so i noticed one of my tires is not the same size as the other three. I feel kinda dumb not noticing this before but its...
i also think it has something to do with the wheels as it did change from better to worse back to better after several trips rotating and balancing. wish i had another set of wheels to experiment with, may try using my buddies wheels from his explorer just to see if theres a difference. honestly...
i agree but after all the parts, money and time ive put into this i dont really know what else to do? ive done just about everything i can think of to find and eliminate this vibration and havent been succesful
well got my tire fixed and rebalanced. there is a huge improvement but still has some vibration. Think im gonna have to live with it as this truck is over 30 years old. May look into changing ujoints on the front axle next time i do brakes and rotors. May also change ujoints in the driveshafts...
thank you for the info, well i checked my wheels and theres weight both on inside and inside so im assuming they did dynamic balancing? i did find a nail in my tire last night when i was looking at my wheels so i made an appointment to get tires rechecked and nail removed and repaired.
so i had the tires rotated and balanced few days ago. Starting to think this vibration is coming from the wheels. Truck seems to vibrate at all speeds now more so at 45mph seems to be smoother at 60 and above. thinking maybe a bad job on the balancing? i did grab hold of the ujoints in the front...
well my driveshaft was definately phased incorrectly. I removed, phased and re-installed. Unfortunately didnt fix the vibration. tires got rebalanced this morning.
Gonna look into the rear drums next
Again not sure if this is the correct place for this topic.
can someone post a picture of a properly phased driveshaft for an extended cab ranger 4x4 with carrier bearing. I’m pretty sure mine is not phased correctly but I want to make sure that I have it in the correct manner when putting back...
So been reading several posts and forums from people with similar issues and just learned about driveshaft or ujoint phasing. I crawled underneath my truck and checked out my rear driveshaft. The rear side and the yoke side near the carrier bearing are definitely not lined up with each other...

Ok so I removed the headliner located the diode near the cargo light. I put a test light to the wire going into the diode and im showing power, put the test light after the diode and no power. I removed the diode and wired directly and I have light. only problem without the diode my cargo lamp...
Thank you sir gonna dig around in there tomorrow when I get the headliner off and look for loose connections. Thank you also for providing that part number I greatly appreciate that
Hello I have a ford ranger which dome light works fine when doors are ajar. Light sometimes works for a few seconds when the switch is turned on. Cargo light works fine when switch is on. I read on a previous post there is a diode in the wiring from switch to light that I think may be the...
