when you say vibration. where is it felt?
steering,brake pedal,driving,idling.certain speed?
A little more description is needed. :blink:

I believe you have two posts for the same problem.
Since The party is already going at your other place
we will keep it over there. Eric or Dreamer will fix
this one.:P

i feel it at high speed, i replaced the upper ball joint on this truck it comes with the whole upper control arm {witch rocked my wallet by the way) .im not sure if it needs allined or not theres was no shims in it and it drives straite,even with that issue it still has the original prob. the vibration, it sure seems like a wheel bearing but like i said doesnt wiggle when on the jack, i spin the tire and it makes a scapin noise but seems like just the brake pad hitin here and there.. thanks
