Well I narrowed down a vibration at speeds over 55+ in m '87 1/2 ton 4wd. It seems to be coming from the back of the truck somewhere as I can duplicate it on jackstands.
So far, I have swapped the rear rims/tires, had a entirely new driveshaft made and balanced (old one was bent), and I just pulled the rear apart to check it over. All the bearings look fine. It seemed both axle shafts had some excessive runnout so I replaced those as well. I'd have to say after all that there is little to no change in th vibration.
What else can it be? The only things I havent physically touched is the actual rear end housing and tailshaft bushing in the transfer case. I'm going to swap pinion yokes today just to rule it out.
Any thoughts? I'm getting tired of putting money into it w/o any changes.
Truck is stock height with an extra leaf out back.
