  1. Anyone having issues with front CV axles?

    Sounds like the issue I’m having. Can you identify which axle the wobble is coming from? Mine is coming from the front driver’s side. I’ve had it looked at by ford twice and each time they said it was the lift causing the angle of the CV to be more extreme (which it is). The increased angle is...
  2. Anyone having issues with front CV axles?

    What lift did you install?
  3. Anyone having issues with front CV axles?

    Appreciate the insight and detail about why this type of lift is an issue. I knew the risks when putting it on. I’m only having the issue on the front driver’s side. One would think that if this is such a problem it would be happening on the other CVs as well. There is more play in the upper CV...
  4. Anyone having issues with front CV axles?

    Not yet. Still trying to diagnose it.
  5. Suspension Clunking Noise on Driver’s Side

    Same symptoms here. I’m just wondering if you get a clunking noise (like something is not held in/secured right) as I do. My theory is that the case bearing/bushing is bad, which would cause excessive movement, making the CV wobble outside normal movement
  6. Suspension Clunking Noise on Driver’s Side

    At low speed, if I turn the wheel (slightly) quickly to the right, and then back to the left, it causes the clunk. I think it’s an issue with the case bearing/bushing they stabilized the CV. More discussion and other folks with similar issues in this thread...

    If you still have the same issue after the replacement, have them check the case bushing. I still haven’t replaced mine because I’m trying to get Ford to look at it/document it. I have an appointment soon and will provide an update.
  8. Shimmy/Wobble

    I agree that the life will cause more wear than normal, but 2” doesn’t seem like it would cause what we are experiencing so quickly. There are a few folks without the lift experiencing similar issues.
  9. Shimmy/Wobble

    Were those pics taken while the truck is on a ship lift or is it sitting on the ground? The angle is way more drastic than mine. This is a pic of my front left with the wheel turned all the way to the left. Not even close to what you have (if the pics were taken with the truck on the ground).
  10. Shimmy/Wobble

    When you have the axle out, check the case bearing/bushing if you can. I’m not 100% that it is the issue with mine, but I’m fairly certain that’s where my problem is coming from. Below is the part I’m talking about.
  11. Shimmy/Wobble

    I still think it’s an issue the the case bushing/bearing. Still need to argue with dealership more but if I don’t get any resolution I’m going to replace the bushing myself. Will post updates as they come. Appreciate the input from everyone.
  12. Shimmy/Wobble

    I’m not sure how the tune would cause the issue. The tune might be something they state is a modification so I might pull it back until after Ford takes a look at it. Are you noticing anything specific about the symptoms? Coming from one side vs the other? Coming from the front? Are you getting...
  13. Shimmy/Wobble

    Appreciate the input! They probably didn’t check it because it’s easier to say “there’s a lift on it, so that’s why you are having the issue” instead of properly diagnosing it. When I took it in I was supposed get the airbag recall done… but they forgot to order the airbag. Had the appointment...
  14. How is the Tremor factory lift designed?

    I’m not concerned about the warranty at this point. I know I altered the vehicle, so that’s on me. I do think it’s an issue outside of the lift though. I’m sure hundreds of people have installed the same lift, so if the issue is really that bad, why aren’t people making a stink about it? None of...
  15. How is the Tremor factory lift designed?

    Referring to me here?
  16. How is the Tremor factory lift designed?

    Wobble from while accelerating from about 5-20mph. Goes away after surpassing 20mph. Also a clunking noise when hitting bumps and if I turn the wheel back and forth quickly. More details in the link to the thread in my initial post. CV is fine. I put a band thread one in and had the same issues...
  17. How is the Tremor factory lift designed?

    I put a 2” Rough Country lift kit on my XL and I’m experiencing some issues. Wondering if anyone knows how the Tremor lift is designed, and how/if it they did anything to account for the change in angle for the CVs. Long story short, Ford is stating that the Tremor has changes to the suspension...
  18. Lifted Tremor Maverick on 2" Rough Country Lift Kit + Yokohama Geolander MT 255/75/17 Tires

    Looks awesome! Notice any issues with vibration/wobble? I have the same lift but on an XL and I’m getting a low speed wobble and clunking noise coming from the driver’s side front CV. More info here
  19. Shimmy/Wobble

    Just got back from the Ford dealership. They stated that the issue is cause by the lift and that the movement I'm seeing where the CV enters the transmission is "within the normal range". They noted that the lift is changing the angle of the CV, which is causing the wobble. So I basically got...
