2/3 on my 11 Tahoe Z71

[randuff]

Tires were on the car prior to lowering and were perfectly fine. After the lower not so much. I will say the ride with the Belltech is great though!

somethings going on hubs on tight.

 

[randuff]

Well I went and got the front 2 tires rebalanced and they were in need of 1/2 oz
each. Hopefully this solves the problem.

Are you sure the hub rings were reinstalled after the drop was put on?
Also did they torque the hub back properly?

I bet its the hub rings.

 

[randuff]

Is there a way for me to see the hub rings with the wheel on? Ugh...

 

[Modded]

Yeah. Since the Slides are not exposed lug take off the center cap and look to see if the hub ring is in between the wheel and the hub. If not, that's the issue.
Sometimes the rings are colored, sometimes they are black.
For example, the black plastic ring here is the hub ring: http://images.search.yahoo.com/imag...b=13b5104pf&sigi=122k655m1&.crumb=HyyKE90Gfjv

I am a happy Belltech 2/4 owner..

how important are those hub rings? My wheels are getting powder coated right now so if i need them now would be the time to order them

 

[randuff]

Still shimmying

So I checked and all hub centric rings are in place, took a look underneath and nothing looked "out of the norm" but what the hell do I know.

Still can't figure out why it shakes at 60mph after I got the rebalance. Maybe I will take it back and try to get them to check the rebalance....

Any other thoughts? Keep in mind ride was perfect prior to lowering.

I'm having kind of the same issue, but instead of a shake it's more of a vibration at 60-65 mph (only in that range). I'm thinking possibly a bad pinion angle after lowering 3/5.5, but I did install the rear djm hardware kit which included the trailing arm brakets. So I can't understand why the pinion angle would be an issue.
