    Could it be just an idle vibration from injectors needing calibration? Maybe Driveshaft is off 180 degrees? Sometimes causes vibration while driving? Maybe a flat spot on a tire? If so, may go away. I used a noise app on mine, and came up with 76-80 decibels inside the cab while running down the road.

    The yoke they pulled off the splines to replace your carrier bearing might be out of phase. The welded ends of your drive shafts need to be lined up. When pulling that yoke of the shaft you're supposed to mark it and put it back on the same splines. That's what I'd look at first. Somebody doing shoddy work got it out of phase on my truck a few years ago when replacing the carrier bearing. I didnt even know about drive shafts being in phase until somebody mentioned it to me and explained. I only recently found and fixed it, the truck rides like new again. The shaft on the right in the pic below, after I got it out of the truck before pulling it apart to put a new carrier bearing on. You can see in the photo clearly it's waaay out of phase.

    His vibration is at idle I think. Wouldn't be in the driveline if that's the case since it's not turning and sitting still.

    Got a late start today. Haven’t crawled under yet but I was looking at motor mounts and from where I can see, it looks like the wrong ones were installed. If this is the case I got questions.

    1. Where the eff are the new ones I purchased?! There weren’t given back to me. And if they were I would have noticed this issue immediately.

    2. What mounts are installed incorrectly? I provided all new mounts. Were this not installed somewhere else or did parts girl give me extra and they just used them. (None of them were in labled bags.

    3. WHY CANT YOUR IDIOT EMPLOYEES PUT THINGS BACK THE WAY THEY CAME OFF??????!!!!!!!!! Have the same guy take off and put on that way the reetard might remember.

    Whose injectors? Reman or rebuilt. Lots of junk out there. Those Bosch cores are getting pretty old.
