So my '14 rappy wheels (factory wanna-be beadlock style) can't keep a balance for more than 10 miles from dealer. Have read up on it and looks like dropping some coin on the road force balance is the way to go.

Should get rid of the shuddering when lightly braking at highway speeds and random pulling either way, too. I wouldn't think the brake rotors would be warped, but I guess that could always be an issue.

Thoughts? Places in Houston for recommendations?

Going to the dealership for a balance is the mistake you're making. The balancing of a wheel assembly is not going to have an effect on any pulling that may be occurring.

Rotors are warped due to a stuck caliper. Tires are fine

If you think it's a balance issue, have you looked at centramatics?
I run them on a Jeep (YJ with 35's) - work like a champ.

Centramatics

Don't know if they have a bolt pattern for the Ford....

Checking google for "Haustin, TX".

So I thought it sat in California for over a year before I got it shipped here in May '15, but apparently my build date was Jan 2015 (via VIN check)...?
