- '01 Tundra with vibration problem
- Posted by Bob Sackimono
I have a 2001 Tundra SR5, V8, with 41k miles. Runs great, but has a
vibration that feels like it is in the drivetrain. Have replaced the tires,
no change. Tires have been computer balanced several times, including
rotation (front to rear & then cross rotation), but no fix. I put the truck
on jack stands and put in gear. Tires are clearly not out of round and track
straight. But, I did notice that the rear driveline (2 piece unit) appears
to have a slight wobble, whereas the front portion of the driveline does
not. U-joints look fine, with no extraordinary slop. I am tempted to remove
the rear driveline and take to a local driveline shop for balancing. Has
anyone heard of such a problem, or experienced this problem?

If there is a problem with the driveshaft this is Toyota's problem on the
5/60 powertain coverage?

The driveshaft center bearing might be misaligned or failed. As said, this
is a warranty item.

It is still under warranty, take it back to Toyota. If you haven't replaced
the brakes that is probably what it is.
