I just recently installed a leveling kit on my 04 HD and since then I have developed a vibration sound that only happens between these speeds . It stops if you let of the throttle but it sounds like i am running over the ruts on the side of the freeway. has anyone had this problem or know how to fix it??

First, I live in Louisiana and have not heard of state inspections being rejected for this reason. Maybe this is something I can bring to the attention of LA-DOT.
 
I have a 2004 Z71 which I bought new and now it has only 28K miles. I noticed the clunking in the steering wheel at about 15k miles and was told it was not a major problem and that grease would help, but the clunking did not bother me enough to take it apart. Now, I have another problem with steering which is a safety hazard. At a stop and low speeds, with or without the breaks applied, I have no power steering assistance to the left. I jacked up the left side enough to get some pressure off the wheel and noticed I can steer in both directions just fine. I checked and greased both sides and did not find anything noticeably worn on the front end. I read a service bulletin that recommends changing the gear box from a 670 to a 680.
 
At the end of the day, I'm still scratching my head and looking for answers...All the help is greatly appreciated!

I have an 04 4WD and had to have the rear slip yoke replaced because of a whinning noise. It was not there all the time but sometimes.

I complained to the dealer my 03 felt as if the whole front end was going to fall out. They told me they knew what it was and fixed/lubed the Intermediate steering shaft, unfortunately in just a month it was the same thing. Who has the time to give up a vehicle for a few days every month to the dealer to keep repairing the same thing. Now I know why my friends by Tundras and GM is loosing money, they keep selling us junk.

Things have changed since 2006. In 2007 GM came out with a replacement shaft part no. 19153614. FYI

I know how you feel about the int. steering shaft problem... I have a 2003 2500HD that I bought new in June, 2003. Of all the hundreds of parts that could have been junk on your truck, give GM,(Chevy) some credit, every other thing on my Silverado is still working from day one even every light bulb is original. I LOVE MY SILVERADO !!!
 Look into buying an aftermarket shaft, they do make one. Good Luck, bp.

Did you buy an aftermarket part? I just got a message from my dealer that GM came out with a replacement part that should still be covered under warranty ( I have an 03 GMC) yes, a real part and not another lube kit. I'll let you know how it goes.
