07 Tundra vibrating 25mph to 45mph (Front diff blown)

[Dana_15]

Damn it, the Tundra is vibrating like crazy over 25mph but seems to subside around 45mph. The motor is running fine (smooth as silk actually), I checked the torque on all the lugnuts, rear end fluid and greased the rear driveshaft (front as well).

Anyone else here of this? I don't have the time to go to the dealer until next week at the earliest.

An extreme case of the 'rumble strip'?

Hope not. Maybe unrelated but my drivers side front tire is wearing pretty bad on the outside edge...can't believe I did not notice it before. Truck has 10k on the odo and the tires have not been rotated, I was going to do it yesterday but decided to hold off until dealer visit.

Highway speeds the truck sounds normal, but around 30 mph it almost sounds like a helicopter. This is the first "real" problem with this truck.

It's strange that it would go away at higher speeds, usually vibrations get worse. But a wearing tire could be an indicator of something. Does the truck still track straight? How do the brakes feel if you apply them when the truck is vibrating (pulsating, smooth, etc)?

It has me boggled. Maybe later today I'll hop in the back of the bed and let my wife drive, maybe I can pin point the location.

New front differential on order . Guess there is a TSB on it.

At least there's a fix. I had forgotten there was a TSB for the front diff.

Very true, hopefully this will do it, thanks!!

rumble strip, need a new torque converter, had the same problem,

[Dana_15]

I hope this isn't the beginning of problems to come. The rear suspension squeeks like hell right now, its only quiet when it has a load on it...but that coimplaint is for another day

[Dana_15]

Got it back today, its like brand new again .

[Dana_15]

[-SCWEET1-]

haha^^ I got 19000 on mine, and just this past week I have been feeling slight steering vibrations.... shiieet??

[Dana_15]

Not good man. I love the drivetrain on this truck, the rest of it...the jurys out.
