Curious as to what you guys think may be the problem. Upon heavy acceleration, the truck gets this shuddering wobble feel to it. I dont know how elst to explain it. I replaced all of the U-joints, the pinion feels tight, and there is no slop in the wheelbearings that I can feel. I really don know what it could be. I was thinking that it could be a wheel out of balance or maybe a bad ball joint?
 












Separation of what? The bearing or tread on the tire? The tires up front are brand new.
 






Check you upper buchings in the front, if their loose they will do that same thing.
