Rear end shimmy '05 F 150

NAyone out there have any issues with a rear end shimmy. Mine feels like iam dirving over little bumps. The dealer put a spacer in the rear end (3.73 limited slip) 4wd. Now the rear end slips before the gears catch and I still feel the shimmy.

Any ideas?

rearend shimmy

hey...check your emergency brake cables...I have an 04 and have replaced the right emergency brake cable twice..apparently it hangs up causing the rear end to vibrate like having a flat tire

good luck
