From: in the springs
the shear pin rarely gets loose it is typically in one piece doing its job or broken. if broken it is highly unlikely the truck would run at all.

Final Update:

Put in the new dizzy & plug wires (just for good measure) and fired her up....

Sounds Beautiful. Vibrations are gone, thanks for all the info and suggestions.
