    Hi gang I’m lost and no clue as to what my issue is I have 04 limited DC tundra and recently put 3” leveling kit thinking it would replace a good amount of older parts on it which it did but I have a short vibration that occurs when I’m at a stop on a hill upwards then turning left and accelerating at any amount of speed it vibrates till I’m straight again and it’s at any angle left as well .!!! Now I have replaced all ball joints outer ties and sways links also calipers rotors pads and yes axles but it’s still there and has not changed one bit so I’m lost especially with my recent inspection sticker I watched them jog the wheels to check for play and they are tight like butt cheeks so anyone have ideas? Thanks

    needle bearings at front axel could bad?? or maybe the limited slip fluid in rear diff needs changed with a fluid with friction modifier?? 3” lifts do funny things to the fronts..

    Tires rubbing the fender liner? Normally at the mudflap area. Full lock could be rubbing the frame. Some lifts with the wrong wheels or tires will rub the UCA.

    What are the needle bearings just the wheel ones? Yeah I have put all new royal purple tranny and gear lube with a small tube of friction modifier in addition to whatever was in the royal purple in both front and rear diffs also I continue to have to grease the driveshaft yolk like seems every month or so is that way to often? Using Lucas red and tacky

    Tires and rims are aftermarket but they are sized to be same dimensions as stock I never went bigger but would bad springs or shocks do it ? It seems like it’s from drivers side and only when making a left but if I floored the gas at a stop and moved steering wheel tiny bit I can almost make it vibrate so little but not as much as turning for sure. Best description of how it feels is almost like a light abs pulse but it’s definitely not that

    Did you look thoroughly at the tire, and all around inside the well and on the mudflaps for any signs of either cutting into the tire, or rubout on the body or liners?

    3” lift is too much for the double cabs, you’re probably maxing your CV joint angles.

    Is it spacer lift block placed on top of the coil over assembly?

    Edit: or look for rub marks in the wheel wells.

    Well I got the lift with the drop brackets front and rear so I thought it would avoid all headaches but also I had the problem before doing the lift kit which was another reason why I chose to get a lift then replace whatever the lift didn’t give me afterwards also no rubbing definitely feels more like a mechanical thing like the cv rubbing but is there something else that would make a cv rub besides bad joint which they are moogs and both new the only thing that’s old is my frame lol and bearings which could be newer I just don’t know how old and then my front springs and shocks are rough looking could they cause any issues with it this is sucks a lot but I hate giving up on things I should be able to fix myself
