    Hi again guys, there's no bubbles coming out inside the fuel tank, i have no issues starting the truck, actually it's start like perfect, almost instantly, it should be something with the direction or suspension, my steering wheel shakes side to side too. I can feel it that the problem is on the tires or somewhere there, i have an appointment for alignment. I will post if it fix it.
    Once again thank y'all guys.
    Blessings!!!

    Check your ride height.
    A bad or slipping ride height valve can cause your u-joints to change angle and set up a vibration.

    yeah they looks good. they are the huck bolts so I can't check torque, but they look tight with no evidence of like a wear spot because of it moving

    thats a good tip. I just assumed it was set correctly with replacing my level valve and arm and used the same hole location. I looked at my carrier bearing and the rubber looks good, but I might replace it anyway just to rule it out.

    Anyone know what the proper ride height is and where it is measured?
