vibration?
Have a vibration that occurs when the truck goes over about 45MPH with the clutch engaged or when I press on the accelorator. If I coast down hill or have the clutch in the vibration goes away. I first thought it might be the tires, so I changed front and back tires with the same results. Also the fact that it goes away when you depress the clutch, makes me think it can't be the tires. Then I thought it was the clutch and replaced that, but it is still making the vibration noise. Does anyone have a suggestion?

If you have a 2 piece driveshaft check the u-joints and carrier bearing.
My carrier bearing went out and caused a big vibration. The rubber was chewed up.
When I had it replaced I decided to grease the u-joints since the back one seemed stiff. It was frozen and had broken needle bearings inside. All of my u-joints are the same (86 2.9 xl) and $11 at Kragen. The carrier bearing was hard to find at Kragen and Autozone - had to order. I went to a long lived local parts house and got it for $25 and $20 to press it on the driveshaft.
Good luck
