    Very Very mild vibration in my steering wheel and pedals at low rpms when moving and it comes and goes every 2 seconds.
    Anyone have any clues as to what it could be? Looking to get it fixed or looked at but don't want to go somewhere without an idea before hand.

    You lifted your truck, could be the needle bearing.

    I'm kind of noticing some annoying vibrations in my new truck. Upgrading my tires next Saturday and hopefully with that and the new wheel balancing it'll go away.

    Like everyone else recommends, try wheel balancing and tire pressure first at least.

    Is it like the vibration pulses on and off every 2 seconds? At all speeds?

    Just search vibration, vibrating, driveline, etc. on here and the reading is endless. Many of these trucks vibrate and are very sensitive to changes in springs, driveline angles, etc.

    Since it is lifted, I would bet $20 it’s the driver side needle bearing. I chased vibes forever before finally doing this fix. Look up ECGS clamshell bushing for Tacomas
