2001 Tahoe suspension harshness felt through brake and accelerator ped


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello all, I just picked up this Tahoe about a month ago. 125k miles, I've been going through and refreshing it although it's been reasonably well taken care of. Strange that people will put nice new Michelins on a truck and then never change the brake or power steering fluid (never seen such green, stinky brake fluid before).

 

There's still some vibration/harshness coming through the pedals when going over bumps and potholes. Most noticeable when hitting something like a manhole cover with the driver's side wheel. Not much, if any, harshness coming through the steering wheel.

 

I did check over the front end. I just replaced the steering gearbox and pitman arm, the tie rod ends and idler arm/bracket feel tight. No ripped boots. Wheel bearings don't have any play. I just replaced the sway bar end links and mount bushings, bump stops, and shocks with KYB Excel-G's.

 

Thanks
