Possible solution for 1800-2300 rpm buzz

My part's being delivered today and I have my generic 2.5" clamp ready to go... Will report back

 

Awesome! I notice the difference the most cruising between 80 and 85 in 6th gear. I can barely feel any buzz from the wheel where before it was quite noticeable. You may need to do a bit of trial and error to see where the damper is most effective for your particular vehicle.

 

Cool. The vibes I have remaining aren't unbearable like they were before the aforementioned fixes, but really it's that 2k buzz in the steering wheel I'd love to address b/c if in drive ~75-80mph that's where it sits in The Vibration Zone. I'll put it where you did to start, and plan to do a 300 mile r/t drive tomorrow, mostly interstate to do some whitewater kayaking tomorrow so I should have a good read

 

Thank you, Sir!

 

I might have missed it but do you have an AT or MT? Looking forward to hearing your feedback regardless as I'm probably going to give this a try.

 

AT

 

Perfect, can't wait to see if it helps with the 75mph+ vibrations.

 

Thanks

 

Put it on at lunch and drove around a bit, but no interstate driving until tomorrow. Couldn't tell any difference driving around in sub 50mph zones w/ red lights but we'll see how the interstate driving goes tomorrow and then I'll decide whether to move it around a bit.

 

I'm pretty interested in this, please keep us updated.

 

Any updates ? This is one of my biggest annoyances with my truck.

 

Agreed

 

You have 75+ vibrations? I may be able to help. Please describe the onset of, and what provokes, the vibrations. Is your truck's suspension stock? If not, what is different? What tires are you running?

 

The damper made a small difference based on my drive yesterday, but nothing miraculous. Going to try some other locations over the next week and see if I can dial it in...

 

thanks for the update,I will keep watching for a couple days to seer what happens

 

Any more updates?

 

guess not

 

I secured that cable next to the TC that you made mention of, definitely
feel less vibes on the floor.

 

Just had my 6 month 4500 mile service done, I told the service writer about the vibes in the wheel at 2000rpms. They were able to get a tech to check it out. He told me it was because of my TRD exhaust is "slightly forwards and the hangers are pushed back". LMAO

 

Sorry folks - been to busy to do any more tinkering with this lately. And my truck is stil too inconsistent to give an accurate review. I'll go several days and the vibes will be barely noticeable - then for no good reason they return and resume the annoyance.

Going to see if this tune helps with the consistency a bit and once I have done that I'll resume tinkering with placement of the damper

To date the only lasting impact I've found was securing the loose cable which made a big improvement in floor and pedal vibes. Still no dice on the numb steering experience though
