	All four tires were replaced. If it is a viscous coupler, does it have to be replaced?

	Did your last set of tires actually have an uneven wear pattern? If so I would take it to a good alignment shop.

	If you have the selec-trac you do not have a viscous coupler. It could be your front axle u-joints are worb out and binding.
