    I'm starting to get a vibration in my truck as well. The rear right inside drive is starting to show some unusual wear on the inside. Going to have to take a real good look at it tomorrow morning.

    Im in Jacskon, MS at the Petro for the evening. Headed to Dallas for Monday delivery. Then, hopefully up to Denver for time off.

    Might be time to have your alignment check also efon. Im trying to see about a top end work on mine. Mark said they do them if your mog goes down or every 100k. Im about to hit 300k and for some reason I cant get the truck to do better then 6.5 anymore. So I think it is time for a top end for me. Who knows what they will do.

    Ya that could be it. Don goes home early on fridays to take care of his mom. I would just call him on monday. Email him also [email protected] . No log or qualcomm exp. needed. They will show you how to use it. Do the training class that is on the system as well. It will help you learn it. If all else fails just ask us on here. If you get hired ask for some of are cell #'s and we can walk you through it also.

    made it to Colby KS before my legs gave out, trucks doing alot better. still has a wobble but no where near what it was, and now it somtimes go's plum away, rides sweet when that happens, that alinment really made a differance. the mech said it was out 17 deg or 1/8 of an inch. he said that wasn't bad but I think it was at one point yesturday i thought the cabinet behind my head was going to fall off the wall it was shaking so bad

    I was with Crete when mine started the extreme vibration at anything above 50mph. I was just coming down to Las Vegas when it started. Las Vegas Peterbilt couldn't fit me in for at least a week so breakdown told me to limp in back to Lincoln. I did and they put new steer tires on it and sent me on my way. I got up to 50mph and it was still there...so I went back....new brakes and an alignment and still no joy. Finally another driver up in the lounge told me about the u joints. He was driving a Pete like mine. So I went downstairs and was told to leave the repairs to them and go sit my ### in the lounge. So I sat...they finally came and got me and said it was all fixed. So I went back onto the 70 and sure enough at 50mph you thought the front end was falling off....so I went back and grabbed the mech and put him in the passenger seat and away we went. I got up to 50mph and he said...thats one hell of a vibration you have here.... I said no shot sherlock and then they pulled the drive shaft and found the u joints in pieces. Replaced them and I was on my way....after wasting two days in Lincoln.....
