    Riggs - My 2000 Chevy 3500 4x4 CCLB work truck and family play machine

    When I did my tune up, the cap and rotor were shot as well. I would not ignore those. the idle and smell were noticeably better. Even my wife noticed.

    Driveline Vibrations---Possible Driveshaft Issues?

    Hey everyone, sorry I have been out of pocket. It's been a busy few days. I hate to inform you, but my neighbor made me a fantastic offer and I accepted. It doesn't cover all of the work, but it was more than I paid originally. With all I have going on work, family, and other side gigs, I just...

    Driveline Vibrations---Possible Driveshaft Issues?

    When I rotate 180*, am I taking it off all the way or rotating the transfer case and just putting the straos back on?

    Alright, is 2.5 oz of weight on one wheel considered too much?

    Driveline Vibrations---Possible Driveshaft Issues?

    I wish I could find someone! I'd go in a heartbeat and pay whatever diag I had to. I have called at least 12 places. I will call more in the morning while forum searching and having my coffee. I will also rotate the driveshaft and check u-joints while I am at it. Do you think the NVH app is...

    Driveline Vibrations---Possible Driveshaft Issues?

    Could very well be my issue. I guess I need to go in tomorrow and ask if they can check for a bent rim and what's going on.

    Driveline Vibrations---Possible Driveshaft Issues?

    Interesting you bring it up, but there is an app you can use that a few mechanics swear by called NVH vibration analyzer. One guy found a bent rim AND a bad carrier bearing. I'll post the vid below. I am thinking about getting the app and seeing if I can find what's going on. And yes, I didn't...

    Well, I agree except tires are brand new Coopers and wouldn't the bent rim show up on the balance machine? I am not doubting you at all....just nothing make sense about this.

    Correction ....it gets worse up to 85 and that is as fast as I willing to go with that kind of shaking going on.

    Driveline Vibrations---Possible Driveshaft Issues?

    Sounds good. I will do this in the morning when the cold rain has ended. i figured that way I can also eliminate or discover the condition of the u-joints. If they are stiff or bad, I will take it to the driveline shop and get the u-joints replaced and shaft balanced. I'll report back. It's the...

    Driveline Vibrations---Possible Driveshaft Issues?

    I feel it in the seat even though the entire truck shakes. The steering wheel only seems to vibrate as the truck does, not on its own, if that make any sense. No vibration in the brake pedal. Also, I just put 4 brand new tires on it today. Now it seems worse at 60-70. I was only able to get it...
