Back to topic lol..
Videos to come when youtube finishes processing them..
Put the rear driveshaft back on since I got some new bolts-seems a bit smoother b/c of this-I know the old bolts although tight werent in the best shape. Could just be me..
I put the truck on some stands and put it into gear and just revved it up a bit (see videos).In gear, with the rear just going it shakes a bit, if i lock the front in 4wd it shakes incredibly bad.
In N and in the air it has a roughness in the engine imho...
Took off the rear drums, checked both rear shafts, both seem absolutely fine.. Put truck into gear and watched-if they have run out (I dont have a dial indicator) then its news to me, they looked
straight and true.
Then I took it down the road, it may just be the fact it was warmed up but it didnt vibrate as much as I thought it was doing.
At this point im at a crossroads, axle shaft seems fine, driveshafts F/R seem fine, maybe it is the tires, but why it rolls smoothly when not in gear or on the skinny pedal is beyond me.
I really think the vibration is in the front somewhere, its really felt in the cab of the truck ever since i replaced the axle shaft.. I think im gonna take it to the stealer and see if they will at least diagnose it and if they can we'll take it from there. Like I said a whole bunch of friends who are mechs and my own personal mech is stumped by now.
Any other ideas here? Wheel bearings up front maybe (I did have it apart to change brakes/rotors, all seemed fine)
