  1. http://vibratesoftware.com Good stuff here. Now for android
  2. I did and yes much better however I have added larger tires rated at E. Only time I feel slight vibs is going up or down a hill. I'd say I'm 99% free of vibrations
  3. Can you point me to this information on tires please
  4. After putting ajustable Bilsteins and load range E tires on my truck the vibes went away maybe 80% of the time. So then I started messing with air pressure on the tires. They are a good sized all terrain tire with max pressure of 80psi. I originally had them set at 50. Now I dropped them to 40psi and it rides very well. Much better than stock and vibe is 99% gone. Only time I feel it slightly is when going up or down inclines overpasses etc. Don't know if this helps anyone but thought I'd chime in
  5. I routinely have approximately 500 plus pounds in my bed. Sometimes probably closer to half a ton. Does nothing for my vibration
  6. Thats a big hit on mileage. If you didn't correct thru a recalibration of your computer then you are really getting better than what you think
  7. Very very sharp ! I'm probably going with same tire and size. Would like to know your opinion of them. My truck and rims are same as yours except for color. Haha
  8. I was checking on various Sorbothane products. Interesting stuff but I don't have an exact location of my vibe issue and dont want to spend a ton of money on a crapshoot. I'm going to start with doing something with my rear leafs eventually
  9. Ok so who is going to be the first one to try to dampen vibrations by clamping or bolting a plate of steel to their frame?
  10. Pinion angle is important. Yes it changes with a heavy load or hitting bumps etc but it has a range of motion that it works thru and as long as it's within spec it is smooth. If it's off from the start it doesn't work right and you can have problems with u joints and vibrations
  11. Can anyone tell me where I can find information on what correct pinion angle should be? Can anyone tell me where I can find information on what correct pinion angle should be? Can anyone tell me where I can find information on what correct pinion angle should be?
  12. Can anyone tell me where I can find information on what correct pinion angle should be?
  13. Old drag racer here. Familiar with cal tracs. Also if I remember correctly you need minus 2 to 3 degrees of neg pinion. But I have no clue what specs are for our trucks
  14. That's just probably the cal trac u bolt unloading from leaf spring.
  15. So you are saying that your pinion angle was off? Or do you think your original driveshaft was bent or out of balance?
