I had this vib early on. (Before and after adding Eibach’s coil overs to level it.)
The dealer won’t do the TSB because of the lift.
Im at 24k miles and don’t have the vib that I noticed between 1500-2500 rpm when I first bought it.
I added a tune but still had it but not nearly as noticeable. My truck is very smooth now with the added miles. I did pick up a vib at 80mph but that was after a wheel rotation.
I can’t tell you specifically what changed but adding miles seemed to help.
I also did another thing recently by taking the main spring out of my GFB DV+ and I read something on here which involved turning on the power without starting. Mash the gas pedal down for a minute. Turn the power off, wait two minutes and start. WTF that does exactly I don’t know.
Ive always felt the vib was due to transmission programming and the computer hunting for the ideal shift point and failing, sport mode helped mine in the beginning.
Something else that bugs me was mentioned earlier. If you go bouncing off-road or load your truck down with a trailer that too changes the driveshaft angle. This angle is always changing isn’t it?
I’ll cut my rant off by saying the Tremor’s terraflex joint may be a good fix but it is sad Ford hasn’t addressed this with a recall.
