2001 E350 Van front end shake

It could be the tires are worn unevenly. It could also be due to the wheel alignment not being quite right. My experience with a few of these vans is they always seem to have some level of vibration, some just worse then others.

: Have a 2001 E350 Van, 110K - new brakes, rotors, bearings, tires, : alignment, front end checked buy 2 technicians and is very good. Drive : at any speed the steering wheel shakes. It seems to stop if driving : around a sharp curve, right or left. I know another person with the : same problem and he said that he was nerver able to find out what was : causing it to happen. Anyone had this problem. Thanks.

I have a E350XLT, same year... I had vibration when braking but new rotors fixed it... Make sure you have a good alignment and get good tires. I stopped using the goodyears after the Ford tech said mine had dryrot... Now I have a set of Michilins LT4/X(LT4 on the back, LTX on the front because they stopped making the LT4 and I replaced them in pairs). I picked them based on the rating at tirerack... the goodyears it came wiht weren't rated very high there...

I love my van, and with only 70k miles on it, I expect it to last for as long as I need a large van (my last payment on it is this month...) Its the extended version and I can carry a portable basketball set in the back with the doors closed... great cargo capacity...

We realy like this van, but the shacking side to side is a real mistery. We have checked everything. Other than the small side to side steering wheel shake, the van is great.
