I recently started experiencing terrible wobble under braking. I didn't realise at the time, but it started just after I over-inflated my tyres. Returning them to a more sensible pressure solves the issue.
So after checking the tyres they were at 36 rear and 30 front, they are 26 all round now and doesn't seem to have made any difference. Will go down to 23 on the front tomorrow but guessing 3psi isn't going to change all that much. Guess it's back to get them balanced again.
Hello there i just bought a jimmy year 1999.The engine is perfect..
the main problem i have is that when i go 80 mph the steering shakes as well as the body..
Can i know what the problem is.. Thanking you very much for your precious times.
Infact i have tires size 205)70) R15.
Do you think that the tyre may be causing this problem.
By the way i live in mauritius and the availability of spare parts for jimmy is rare..

If it only shakes at 80mph I would slow down and be happy as most jimnys shake between 30-50

Me too! I'm not sure I would want to do 80 mph in any Jimny!
Your ears will bleed from the noise and the fuel you'd use would be terrible!
