Help with vibrations

Goto Google and type the tsb and on search it will show tacomaworld site with tsb as title and someone on the link will have it

 

That's what I did it was faster unless someone has the links for it

 

TSB just puts in the same part. Just sayin'

 

Got it thanks.

 

Negative.... new Nachi bearing has a much stronger needle cage to reduce flexing then the original Koyo bearing. Nachi bearing-steel cage. Koyo bearing-plastic cage

 

Update:
Printed the TSB and took it to my local dealership. It's the needle bearing and they are replacing, no questions asked. Was hoping to know by now but it took forever to get the parts and then their special tool broke. Now I'm just waiting for them to get a new one and hopefully all will be good.

 

My bearing had a steel cage It looked fine upon removal, even though I had the vibe for over 10k miles.

 

Left-original bearing Koyo
Middle-TSB bearing Nachi
Right-ECGS

I have replaced a few and I believe they were all plastic type cages but.... I have never replaced one on a 2012. Only 2014 and 2015 so who knows. I don't believe I have heard of anyone getting the TSB or the ECGS and having the pulsing vibration come back.

 

I've been wrong before. I could be wrong about this too. Maybe it's just the sleeve I'm thinking of. I remember looking at the bearings themselves to see of the looked messed up.

 

No worries.

 

Update:

Big thanks to @RedRed and TW for helping me out. Finally got the TSB work done today and vibes are gone! So nice knowing it's not driveline related!

 

Got mine done too. All good but they put the original 3510 bearing in mine as per my paperwork. They tired to say my lift caused the problem and i was going to have to pay for the bushing. We worked it out, this one was on them next one if needed i will pay for.

 

I'm curious up to what mileage they'll fix it for free. I'm almost at 36k miles, and I have a 13 so I'm thinking it might be too late. I believe I felt it for the first time tonight on the way home from work. It did it for a couple miles and stopped. It was cold outside too, which may not have helped. What's funny is that I was just looking at a thread about the bushing a day or so ago, and thought I was doing good to not have this issue so far. I haven't confirmed it yet, but I'm afraid it's the bearing. I have a 3" lift on mine.

 

The TSB says up to 60k. My 14 was done during the 45k service.

 

I have a 2.5"ish lift and they never balked at it. My truck is a '13 with 51k on it and didn't have an issue.

 

Glad it all worked out.

 

yall are lucky to get it done with a lift, they wouldn't even cover it for me stealership bastards

 

They hassled me till i showed them a copy of the TSB talked with the services manager and said where does it say anything about a lift. Looks like this has been happing to many even without the lift. They finally agreed and i got it done.

 

@Tdkrum5 where did u take it too ?? OLY stealership?

 

Yes. I did purchase the truck from them and they have all the service records.
