another question virbration????

I have a vibration at 45 miles an hour and it levels out or goes away around 55 miles an hour. I checked front tires, exhaust, motor mounts, u-joints, carrier center drive shaft bearing for tightness and they all seem good.

I was wondering if this has occurred for anyone else and what I might check next. I have had the truck finished and on the road (not much though) for about 12 months and when I first started driving it this was not going on.

When it goes to vibrate or shudder (I am not sure which) I can put it in neutral and it will stop and smooth out would this maybe be transmission related? I am going to look at transmission mount and see if it is tight.

If all else fails, check your harmonic balancer and make sure the outer ring didn't move relative to the inner.
