    same here

    Scott,

    I get the same thing, noise only while maintaining speed. No sound while accelerating or coasting (slowing down). It's definitely a driveline vibration thing.

    Do you offroad at all? My dealership diagnosed the problem as being bent rear axle stabilizer bars and a bent lateral rod, in other words, the things that hold the axle in the proper place. They wanted $1200 to replace all three. Instead we put it on the lift at a buddy's garage, took the rods off and straightened them with a jack. The sound all but disappeared, until I took it offroading again.

    When I get a chance, I'll probably replace them with rods from Stinkyfab. They're much cheaper, and pre-bent.

    I did not experience any problems with mine. I did the ball joint flip and had the front alignment performed at the same time. Then I drove from Atlanta to Moab and back...no problems.

    mbeach ,it continues until rear is loaded again. the slightest weight transfer starts and stops it. or speed gets under 60 mph then it doesn't vibrate
