    I see what youre saying, but they have the factory 650lb springs on them. My truck would ride like complete shit with 800lb springs in the front. I'm going to adjust the rebound tomorrow when i finally have the time and ill measure them then.

    Are floor mats a mod?

    Vibe rattle or growl? All different fixes.
    Truck prob too new for wheel bearing
    Carrier bearing usually more from stop to about 20. Feels lumpy on accel. But can feel in steering wheel.
    Vibe in steering wheel might be not enough caster. Lifted 3”+ should have 2.5+ degrees.
    Truck prob too new for drivers roller bearing but it has happened. When my roller died it would go away in 4hi and if I grabbed that axle I could feel some play in it.

    If it’s a whine it’s prob SF fans and will go away. ( sorry, I had to. It was just too good to pass up. No hard feelings.):boink::bananadead:

    Haha! well played. No whine here, I acknowledge that the hawks are a superior team that's been beating our asses for most of the decade. I still have nightmares of Kam knocking the crap out of Vernon. He was never the same after that. Oh well, it just made room for Stone Cold Kittle!

    It's a vibe that feels like I'm on really knobby tires, no growl. Caster's at 3 degrees.

    If it does it only under load You might want to check the carrier. Best way is with a GoPro or other video as the bushing is so soft doing it by hand doesn’t work.
    If it still vibes will gas off it’s prob not the CB

    Loosen all your lugs and retorque. Springs settle so don't sweat height for a week or two. Go find some place to flex out the suspension to help break it in.

    For those following along at home, both caliper bolts on the drivers side had backed out 1/64th and seized there. It took 60 ft/lbs to move them so they felt tight but the caliper still moved. Thanks for the ideas @Adude @Juforrest @bobsuruncle
