vibration at 55mph

I have an anoying vibration at 55mph. It is not there until 55 and stops at 60mph. u joints are fine and I had tires balanced several times. I finally put on centramatic wheel balancers. Vibration still there. I have a leveling kit on truck and dealer says it is just the bfg mud terrains that are doing it. I have heard talk on the forum about a one piece driveline. I don't have a launch shudder problem. Is anyone having my problem that has put the one piece driveline on and has it gone away? About ready to order a one piece. Thanks

Mine did the same thing though it was 60mph and quit at 65, quit though after replacing my injectors, but that could have been a coincidence. I would take it somewhere besides dodge and make them ride with you and start checking out the easy stuff before jumping at the big stuff.

It is your front driveline spinning. Most report this issue at around 55mph. Normal.

i removed my front drive shaft and it heped alot with the vibration, it may be worth giving it a try ,i also had my drive shaft balanced while it was out and it was out quite a bit but i did not re-install it yet to see how much difference it actually made.
