Vibration???
My truck has started i vibration that I think is coming from the rear. It will only do it when i let off the gas to coast down a hill. I am suspecting something like the driveshaft u-joint. What do you guys think? I posted here since it gets a lot of traffic.

put tranny in neutral crawl underneath your truck grab the drive shaft slowly turn the drive shaft (back and forth in both directions), paying very careful attention to the u-joint. There should be no slack in the u-joint between the driveshaft and the flange. If it is really bad, you can hear it cluncking when you change rotational direction on the drive shaft.
