    Have an issue with a random vibration over certain parts of our roads. I have a feeling it’s a transmission mount. I’ll go over certain textures of the road and accelerate, and a vibration shakes the crap out of the truck for just a few seconds. I was stupid and thought it was a CV axle on the front passenger side, the dealership agreed and I replaced it. Didn’t really change anything. Do you guys have any ideas?

    Dumb question but have you had your tires and wheels balanced?

    Do you feel it more in the steering wheel or in the seat?

    Most often, this is it. Even if you have had them balanced once, they might not be any longer.

    Wheels have been balanced. It feels like going over them side strips on the highway that keep you alert if you go off the side of the road. Happens between 20 and 40 mph. Only happens when under acceleration. My oldest son worked at a tire shop for 5 year and I took him for a ride, he said definitely not a tire issue. To answer one of the questions, I feel it in the steering wheel and the seat. Always under slow to medium acceleration. Literally shakes the whole truck. Had my wife drive side by side on both sides of the truck in her car and she saw no wheel hop like you see on an out of balance wheel.
    I’m dropping it off tomorrow at the dealership, they can have it as long as they need. I’m having Total Hip Replacement on Monday, so they can take their time to figure it out.
