I have a 1995 Chevy 1500 extended cab short bed. I have 161k miles. I replaced the rear wheel bearing about a month ago and now I have a vibration at 40-50mph. It is rather noticable when driving(it will shake a soda can in the cup holder) when I am above 50 and below 40 all is well. I replaced the rear drive shaft u joint tonight and it helped some but it is still there. Any recommendations is chasing this down??? Thanks for you help

Hi there,

If this is just a body vibration and not felt in the steering the problem will be in the rear end. I would be checking the tyres and also the alignment of the tail shaft, also check the rear suspension foe tightness.
