Hi folks,
I have a 2004 Explorer that has started exhibiting this "roaring" vibration from the frontend, definitely related to tire speed. Most noticeable around 50-60mph, it gets pretty loud, you can feel the vibration in the floorboards.
I am concerned that it might be related to the 4WD, which I'm not too familiar with. Had the car for a couple years now, and never made such noise before. I did drive around with an over-size spare tire for about 100 miles or so before realizing I could be doing some serious damage -- is that possibly the culprit?
TIA - if there are other posts that relate to this issue please let me know. There is so much info on this forum, it really rocks!
