Default Help on my mad force

I had this truck for a while and all 4 wheels just started to wobble and they shiver when running. Any ideas on how to fix it?
If any body has a good idea just let me know, and some other upgrades if needed.

Shivver? Are they out of balance like the foam has come apart? Or are the wheels broken or warped? I think the best improvement, from what I have read, is to stiffen the radius arms. The stock ones flex and can cause some issues. CV shafts instead of the stock dag bones too. The Sticky at the top of this page has a ton of info too.

The tires are brand new and also got the front CVD and have them installed. After this upgrade it started to wobble the front wheel.

Another thing I need cvd's on both ends, we're can I get them? The ones that I use are cvd in one end and they keep pooping out due the excessive torque.

I have this same problem with my MF VE.

I dont think its the bearings, its almost like the foams are twisted inside the tires causing the whole tire to vibrate/wobble horribly.

Makes the entire truck shake at speed.

I'd try putting firmer foams in it.

Have you felt the tires to see if the foams actually have added up? Definitely need to fix this. Bring next time we.meet up. Ill bring mine and we can compare
