    Grab your drivers side CV and wiggle it around. It probably has too much play in it, which the ECGS bushing will fix. Mine was doing the same thing, vibration every 3 seconds and it went away if i pit it in 4Hi.

    Thats that lame bearing.:mad: Luckily ECGS has given us an easy and fairly cheap fix. If you can change it out before too long you wont have to get a new CV. If it goes for too long it will wear a groove in your CV. I put about 6k miles on my truck with the lift before I installed the bushing.

    just subscribed to the 'OFFICIAL' thread on this issue. super happy there is a fix from ECGS but totally annoyed with Toyota that i need to waste the time.

    that was my next question, how long before i score the CV shaft. def don't want to let it get that bad.

    thanks for the info, guys!!
