Vibration

So I recently got new tires, truck running g smooth- 2k miles later I have picked up a slight vibration I noticed while hauling our 5th wheel rv.
unloaded I still feel it but not as bad as under load- seems like around 48-50 then goes away at 60?

how much if any play does the carrier bearing have? I choked wheels and put in neutral and pushed on driveshaft and it moved but not a bunch- not sure how to check sealed u joints either-

wheel weights all look like they are still there-

2 piece drive shaft 2017 f350

My guess would be you slung a wheel weight off. If you feel it in the seat and not the steering wheel it is probably the rear. I would suggest a tire rotation and balance. If problem goes away, then its solved. If it moves to front with rotation then its still a tire but now you have narrowed it down a little. If it's still there with no change, dig deeper.
