    Just an update if anyone else has this problem it ended up being a rear transmission mount and the rear U Joint

    Now she rides like new!

    Having the same problem. Right around 30-35mph crazy vibrations. Just got my tires rotated an balanced and it didn't go away. I have an 05 Prerunner.... So its going to be my U joints?? For the guy that isn't sure what those are...... Is it still a good DIY? I did replace my front wheel bearings my self about 20k miles ago.

    Check out this video it might give you a better idea of what you're up against!

    If I were you I'd replace all 3 U-Joints ... I only replaced one and I ended up having to replace the other 2 shortly after.

    P.S. Don't get Cheep U-Joints from AutoZone ...Do it right the first time and Get them from Toyota!!!

    Also if you have a manual press use a press not a hammer to put the U-Joints back in place.

    Do y’all know what the problem could be for me, it vibrates bad around 25-35 and I just had a one piece driveshaft built for it so I know it can’t be the U joints since they are brand new

    Would help to know what else is done to your truck along with any other maintenance and replacements you've done recently, and how many miles you have.

    No lift? Stock wheels n tires? Never replaced ball joints, tie rods, or any bearings? Why new rear end? Was it bent? Or do you mean you regeared? If so, who set the gears up?
