Root cause for Vibration found.....

From a reliable source.....

Well, most of the vibrations, are due to 2 piece driveshaft center bearings. Don't know if the dealers will have the correct ones in stock yet.....

Not a driveshaft...

Mine was a one piece, and I had a terrible vibration...

I really think it is internal to the transmission...

That is an old theory.

Like there will ever be one cause aqnd one solution to the vibration(s). Bad two piece drive shafts may be the culprit in some trucks, others may have other problems. Very stiff frame = very susceptible to vibration troubles. It won't help everyone but I'm sure it has and will help some.

The vibration problem in my truck was resolved by replacing the entire transmission after first going through all the steps in TSB # 04-3-3. Search this site for "04-3-3" to find the TSB. Click on the following link to read the whole saga of my vibration fix -> LINK
