04 taco vibration
My 04 double cab taco will vibrate (I can feel/see it in the steering wheel and feel it in the seat) when I’m on a smooth road coasting between 30mph to 40mph (foot off the gas). Sometimes there’s a minor shake under other circumstances but no major vibration at freeway speeds. I’m fairly sure the wheels are balanced as the vibration is not worse at freeway speeds. Possible causes: driveshaft runout, bad u-joint, bad motor mounts, warped rotor/drum, tire/rim out of round, rack & pinion issues, stealership gremlins…anyone know how to do an exorcism?

One thing you might check is the carrier bearing on the rear driveshaft. One of the local incompetent dealers (Mark Miller Toyota SLC, UT.) couldn't figure it out.
I went to a driveline shop, and they diagnosed it immediately. This was on a '93 Extra-cab 4x4.

I was just at Mark Miller last night. They said "It feels normal" and "The TRD makes this a hard riding truck". I havent driven other Dcab Tacos so I dont have anything to make a comparison...yet. Something doesnt smell right though...
Greased driveshaft zerks last month. I'll break out the torque wrench this weekend and look at the wheels for missing weights.
