    Truck still has vibration. Dealer says it is because of the aggressive tires - Goodyear Duratracs...said they have cupping. I don't see it. I wish I would have asked them to show me. Too late now. I've got the truck back and paid the price. I thought the price was fair too, but if the vibration is caused by something in the drive train I guess I'll have to re-open the issue, probably at another dealer this time.

    Yea, I have no idea. That service consultant didn't know what the hell he was talking about. The manager pretty much confirmed that, although not in those exact words.

    Jboudreaux explained this in the quote above.. Looks like the bolt holding the flange to the rear section of the shaft
