Any of you bonified experianced expeditors know or have recomendations on when to change the front shocks on FL 70.Seems like 146 k on the shocks are to much to bear.The boys in the "know" told me 250k on the miles///Well Im getting a toe in cup and yes they have been aligned and balanced...Maybe Im missing something.Could be bad tires too..

Never changed the shocks on my 96 FL70, but should have. They aren't a big ticket item, so if you've got a rough ride, go ahead and change them. Can't hurt, huh? Just changed them on my 99 FL112 with 110k (mechanic said they were still good) and it really helped the ride. Could also be a bent rim. Good luck.

what the problem is the tires you have are not G357
i had the same problem and change to G357 goodyear and
don't have the cupping way old tires are, also i rotate
tires one every so often, but to do that you have to
have steer tires all the way around. try the G357
if you are in Norfolk Va area or out of this area
Kramer Truck and Car is a goodyear tire dealer
off of Swells Point Rd off of prince ann in norfolk
take military highway ex 1st road to the right once on
military highway, trun right at light and see south gate
trucking on the left, next light make a left and there on
the right
