    I have recently noticed that when I travel over 75mph on the freeway, the passenger seat shakes. I don't notice any shaking from anywhere else in the truck...there's no wobbleness (yes, that's a made up word) from anywhere else that I can feel. Alignment feels right, the vehicle doesn't "feel" odd otherwise.

    Any thoughts?

    Later.

    Try getting your wheels balanced? Do you feel the truck shaking, or just see the passenger seat shaking?

    Nope, I don't feel the truck shaking at all...just the passenger seat shakes.

    My 11 does too if no one is in it, if you tilt it back one notch more it helps.. some.

    5100's all around. Front's set at 1.75" 265/75/16 Duratracs.
    My does the same thing. I don't worry about it because the wheels are balanced and the truck is aligned. Truck rides smooth and no one complains of the seat shaking when they are in it. I think it is just a lighter seat and it shakes because no one is in it.

    What was even more annoying was my 09 had leather seats. The wobble of the seats made a noise like someone shaking wearing a leather jacket! Lol
