Oh, I know.
On that 6" XX heavy pipe. It was 30lbs. of 1/8" 7018 to fill her up.
All the pipe Im welding out at the refinery has all got to be heli-arced (tig).
My wrist hurts.

Have the wheels been balanced or rotated lately?Maybe one of the wheel weights fell off.
It could be anything in the driveline.
I cant think of anything else without looking at it.
You can jack up the front and shake the tires up and down and side to side. That will tell you if anything is loose.

Id say drive it, go on your vacation.
You should start a new thread in the 2nd gen section. It will get alot more responses.
Great job on the pull!!!
