shimmy/hiccup at 55mph and 1900 rpm in a 93lwb

[jcb-memphis]

Hi.

All is not well.

Shimm/hiccup seems new. Not sure if tranny, plugs/wires/, suspension.

My mechanic messed with things to put a Southway plate on the bottome of the front (protects axle)....could he have unknowingly given me a "death shimmy" or the like?


This did not happen before that modification. He is super...perhaps a worn bolt...

i've heard it can be caused by a couple of things:
1. steering damper,
2. swivel shims pre-load adjustment
3. worn bushes,
4. tyre pressures
5. steering box adjustment
