Vibration

What rims are on your truck ?
17" Chrome steel ?
Did the dealer offer to swap tires / rims for a simple road trip ?
I would strongly agree with others here that a wheel / rim problem might be associated with this behavior.
What is the rpm / speed when it occurs ?
Does it build as rpm increases ?
Or it more indicated/pronounced at a certain speed say 45 mph ?
How about a driveshaft balance check ?

Thank you for the information about the hunter balance system. I purchased Cooper tires for my 2001 Screw {4x2} about 8,000 miles ago. I noticed a vibration from day one, I assumed it was due the increased tire size and the fact I upgraded to a LT tire. The vibration was not that bad, I had the tires rotated and rebalanced at BellTire and noticed a side to side vibration in the seat and center console. After taking it back to the tire store 3 days in a row they sent me to the ford dealer. The ford dealer pointer to the tires and sent me on my way. {little help}
So I took it back to bell tire and they said I should place a passenger tire back on truck to get the smooth ride. So I turn to the F150Online forums to get some information.
I found out about the Hunters GSP9700 system and located one at Discount Tire. $80 latter I'm on the road no vibration and I am once again a happy camper with my Cooper Tires.
