#349 of 375 04 1500 Seat Swap by erf4i

Feb 23, 2010 (12:45 pm)

I am looking to replace the bench seat in my 04 1500 with power leather bucket seats. Is it a direct bolt in? Are there electrical hook ups already there or am I going to have to wire it myself? Any issues or concerns that anyone can think of doing this?
 
Thanks for your help.....

#351 of 375 Vibration by propellers

Aug 14, 2010 (4:51 pm)

Purchased new 2010 CMC extended cab 5 liter 6 speed. Great looking truck but have a vibration that feel like out of balance tires or suspension issue. This starts around 60 and smooth around 80-90 mph. Dealer sems to provide excuses with attempts to make me go away.
 
It started with a small vibration and the last 9 visits the problem gets worse. Balanced tires, took to another tire store, dealer replaced two tires due to road force issues???? The dealer seems to have givin up and said I can go to another dealer for second opinion. This dealer also took for attempt and two new latches to align a tail gate latch. Vehicle now has 11k mile and the tire store said the tires are stating to scallop due to the tire bouncing.
 
Anyone else have this vibration issue? Any fixes?

Goodyear 20" with factory 6ea. wide spoked mags, 4 wheel drive selectable, 6 speed trans. Vibrates in 2 wheel, auto, and 4 wheel and when coasting in neutral. The dealer replaced two tires because road force test measure two high on left front and right rear tires. Now moved two old tires to rear and placed new tires on front. This improved ride but vibration is felt 65 mph +.

I recently had new tires installed on my 06 crew cab 4by4. When i picked it up it had a nasty vibration, i was so frustrated after spending that kind of money that i didn't trust them to touch it again.I took it to a tire shop and they found the wheels were out of balance by as much as 3 ounces. They did a comutor balance and it helped alot but it's still not completely right, suspecting i might have a bent wheel. Understaning your truck is brand new could it be possible the tires are somehow defective? Maybe a different brand of tire might cure your issue, Not sure what to tell you but it's the only thing i can think it might possibly be.
