The other day I checked the U-Joint on the front drive axle that connect to the hog head. It did have some resistance in several positions. This may need to be replaced. Also I checked the side to side of the whole front drive axle mounting to the truck left to right. You Know that the Trac bar is what keeps this centered under the truck. Well I have a adjustable Trac bar that I put on last year. the axle still sits about 1" to the left. I have the bar adjusted to its shortest lenght. With the axle being off like this cause this vibration also?
I would think that would cause a few problems. Why have the axle off center? I don't understand what that's for. With the axle off center, that would throw off the allignment between the front and rear axle. I would think that would make your truck track funny going down the road.
