I'm getting the howling when I push on the accelerator from around 35 to 60 MPH. I don't get it at higher speeds and it goes away when I take my foot off the gas. So the consensus here is that it's the ring and pinion?

As I posted yesterday. Got my truck back today after ring & pinion replacement. The noise is completely gone. While at the dealer yesterday I mentioned some vibration 30-70. They said they had'nt heard of any particular problems with vibration. I explained to check for TSB 04-3-3. Today when I picked up my truck the service advisor told me they'd found the driveline to be out of round and ordered a new drive shaft. It seems almost to easy.
