I adjusted it, took off the drum and all and its now the same as the other side. It made no difference in the vibration or the screeching brake noise if you stop hard-infact now that I de-adjusted it, it seems to lock up.

So:
A: Even though I have newer wheel cylinders, I bought them from napa and something tells me the drivers side isnt working right. Because if I hit the brakes really hard the drivers side definately locks and doesnt release right away. Cant be an out of round drum, the drums/shoes have 250 miles on them or less. I figure there is nothing else to cause an issue, so wheel cylinders sometime this week.

B: The vibration is hard to pinpoint still. On take off you have the wobble, at speed you have the vibe. I seriously think the axle shaft is bent and or the bearing is bad. The rest of the drivetrain is fine, pulling the rear axle and driving in 4wd and the vibe was still there, if it was driveline it woulda gone away.

The leaf springs could maybe causing the axle wrap too, but I rather go the cheaper route first and have the other stuff checked out.

I did notice if I do a light burn out that I hop around, AFAIK there is LSD in this truck. Odd though that the drivewheel was hopping like crazy but the pass wheel was the one smoking..

ELEET: WHEN YOU DID YOUR AXLE SHAFTS, BEFORE YOU CHANGED THEM DID YOU NOTICE ANY VIBRATIONS OR ANYTHING?
