bad vibration between 15 and 5 mph

[brickner11]

i got a bad vibration you can mostly feel slowing down 5 to 15 mph so i jacked up the rear end and it still did it. So im assuming rear u joints? But its only a 2010 with 37000 miles on it, has anyone elae had problems? And im having a problem finding diffrent u joints. Everyones saying u have to get them from a dealer but i dont want those junkers again, anybody know of better ones that will last? Its a 2500 6.7cummins, thanks for any help

Orielly seals precision u joints. Get them. And just cause it has 37,000 miles doesn't mean stuff isn't going to break. I can take a brand new truck with <10 miles and find $500-700 worth of parts that needs replacing. If I pick thru it hard enough.

With your truck in neutral and parking brake applied. Try to lift up and push to the side on your drive shaft. You should see a little movement at the ujoint that is worn. If its even the problem. Don't forget to check the carrier bearing as well.

Hanger bearing is something most people never remember to look at
