I had a similar problem once caused by a loose pinion nut at the rear diff.

maybe mud stuck to a rim? check your tires for broken belts too.

Sorry meborder, I overlooked the end of your post.

Fixed ???

My uncle passed god bless him. So had to drive to Michigan for that.. Decided to just drop it off at the local dealer. Ball joints ,bearing, drive shaft ,tires all front end components checked out ok. When this all stared we were in the rocky mts in Tennessee and I was using the parking break a lot, but it hasn't been working that great , it would go all the way to the floor and barely hold the truck on a slow incline. Ends up the the cables were broke and occasionally on one side would catch on the rotor shaking the truck.. Wouldn't have never guessed that but it does make sense

Glad it worked out for you. First time I've heard of that one....need to put it in the mental data base.

I'm optimistic... That's the only thing they found so I guess we shall see if that truly fixes the problem.. I hope it does

I would think besides the cables being broken you'd have some damage to the rotor as well.
