Just put some brand-newish goodyear wranglers on my 1992 XJ. It had an old set of tires on it before now, and I wasn't having this issue, so I think its tire related.
-Going down the freeway, it feels like the rearend is wiggling. Meaning, its shimmying from left to right at least a degree or two, in a fairly quick pattern. Almost like speed wobbles on a skate board.
No steering input, tracking straight. It's a very disconcerting feeling non-the-less. Makes me want to check the torque on my ubolts to be sure the axle isn't shifting. (its that noticeable)
I have an idea that this is probably just the tires following the grooves in the road, or pulling themselves in and out of a those grooves.
This doesn't happen on city streets, or freeways with asphalt. Tires are very smooth riding otherwise.
Anything I can do to minimize like higher or lower inflation psi's, etc?
thanks!
