The shaking is gone!

I took the truck out for a 70 mph drive down the 405 and the shaking caused by the off-center wheels in front is gone!

Great. Running boards look decent, front axle, rear axle, glass, etc. Lots of goodies still there.

Thanks for keeping the spirit alive....

I just got back from DMV with a fresh plate in hand for the Gauntlet.
I still need to do some more work before road testing begins, but I needed to get my drivers license renewed before tomorrow. I didn't want to make two trips so I got them both today.
I am making a mental note that Friday around lunch is NOT a good time to head to DMV though.
