Hey fellas, went down to help my Dad with the tractor today and noticed that when my truck gets to picking up speed it starts jumping, and I mean literally the entire body of the truck is jumping, not bad but its noticable.... Im not really mechanichy (is that a word ) but was wondering so what do you fellas think??.. The truck has like 170,000 miles on it so its probobly time for a few troubles lol....-tim

dh..... if it is fuel injected, and the jumping is caused by the motor then i would check the oxygen sensors. if it still jumps when you let off of the gas then its could be your tires need balancing. my truck would kinda make an up and down reving of the motor when my oxygen sensors were bad and it kinda made the truck jump i guess you could call it. but if its not doin it when the motor is reved up then its probably in the wheels....

I'm with brandon on this you could have a broke belt or a knot on one of your tires.Or they could be out of balance.It could also be your front end out of line.Just my 2 cents
