U-joint replaced.......vibration
I had a vibration only around 25 mph and when I had a load in the truck, I had no vibration. So I thought it had to be the older u-joint (replace one already two years ago).
I had the truck in for inspection and had the shop change the u-joint. It fixed the vibration at 25 mph, but now I have the faint vibration at higher speeds that I didn't have before. The vibration is typical rythmic sound that you hear when a u-joint is going bad.
Any thoughts or ideas what might be causing this? Bad u-joint, bad instalation? Thanks

have you got underneath it yet? check to see if the shaft is in phase, they might not have put it back right. You can try to rotate the rear tires to the front to make sure it isnt a tire issue.
