Re: precedent rear end vibrating
Mine does the same thing. I had my son drive it by me fast several times so I could see if there was a rear wheel hopping. Wheels "look" ok. I'm wondering if it is just the added tension of the heavy duty rear springs??

Re: precedent rear end vibrating
Did the shake start after the lift was installed or after installation of different wheels or tires, and yes even hub caps? All could have different solutions. Often adding lifts to any cart causes the brakes to be partially applied because the brake cables are too short ( extension kits available from sponsors ). After market wheels can be bent, out of round, or twisted enough to create shaking. Jack up one wheel at a time and turn by hand with some thing solid along side and near wheel edge for run out. Again using some thing solid close to side wall and tread to see how much run out there is. If tires are new they may smooth out after being heated up and allowed to cool down? Often cart left sitting in our heat will have flat spots where tires rest all summer, so many owners jack up and support under axles so tread wont bounce when first used. On tires tread design also comes into play as most lug treads cause bounce.
