    Lose the diff drop. They are unnecessary on the 3rd gens and can cause more harm than good.

    Try the re balancing of the tires first. I use a diff drop in the front and a rear carrier bearing drop. Based on the factory measurements and keeping within spec I am completely vibration free. I believe your issue is tire related.

    If soberity and going with the flow of traffic isn't working then have you tried drinking a few beers so you notice it less plus drive faster to see if it goes away over 95mph? If you still notice it then maybe incorporate texting?

    Thank you for and honest and mature response. I do believe it’s balance issue now too. Thanks again

    It’s gotten better, I did road force balance again and adjusted tire pressure. I think the KO2 tires didn’t like psi in the 40’s. I’ve added my diff drop back in and it’s made a huge difference
