    I have a 2011 TRD sport. I have had 2 wheel bearings put in on the left side and I still have a vibration in the truck it is not in the steering wheel it feels like it's coming from the back of it. Any suggestions on what the problem may be would be greatly appreciated.

    Does it vibrate when accelerating and quit when you get off the gas? U Joints

    Or

    Does it vibrate all the time either accelerating or coasting? Tire balance.

    It usually does it when I let off the gas. I just had the tires road force balanced yesterday.

    Aftermarket wheels? If so are they hub or lug centric?

    The Tacoma is Hub Centric. If you have lug centric wheels you will need hub adapter rings.

    Everything on the truck is factory for a TRD Sport. I think I might have heard the wheel bearing roar on my way to work today in a turn. Is it normal for my wheel bearings to be going out at 100,000?

    I wouldn't say common, but it does happen.

    I took the truck to the dealership and the wheel bearings were good. They also checked the driveline components and they where good also. When I got home I took a look at the tires and my tires with 5000 miles on them had started to chop up.
