Important: If you have not completed the Vibration Analysis tables as indicated and reviewed Diagnostic Aids, refer to Vibration Diagnostic Aids BEFORE operation.

Aftermarket accessories which have not been added to the vehicle properly can actually transmit and magnify INHERENT component rotational frequencies.

Accessory installation should avoid becoming a possible vibration transfer path into the rest of the vehicle components. For example, if a set of kick panels has been installed improperly and they are sensitive to a specific frequency of a rotating component, the kick panels could begin to respond to the frequency and actually create a disturbance once the amplitude of the frequency reaches a high enough point (probably at a higher vehicle speed).

If the same set of kick panels were installed properly - isolated properly - the transfer path would be eliminated and the disturbance would no longer be present.
