There doesn't need to be any play in the bearings for them to fail at high speed/temp. The standard rubber bushes allow a lot of forward and back movement so once that pattern starts it getts worse at higher speeds. Does the shaking go away after you have come to a stop and then start going again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes senna, if I pull over to a complete stop then take off again it will goes away.Klm's are getting up there on mine... 175,000Your thoughts mate?
