Hey all, I have a recent problem that's come up.
if I go 80 or above, my front end shakes real bad, it makes my dashboard vibrate violently and makes it hard to steer. I really don't want to have to rebuild the front end lol

Thanks for the replies in advance and let's hope I can get to the bottom of this

 

My first guess would be out of balanced wheel.

 

Yup, that's one possibility.

Out of round (separated) tire or bent wheel are some others.

Swap the front & rear tires and see if it changes. If it does, it's a wheel/tire problem. If not it's something else. Check to see if the brakes on either side are getting unusually hot; this would probably be due to a failed rubber brake hose. If not, it's probably loose steering parts (tie rod ends, center link, idler arm), ball joints, or strut mounts.
