locked the front hubs, feels really slow

certain speeds? i know when the u joint on my main drive shaft was going i got vibrations at certain speeds and in different gears..

which obviously this has nothing to do with 4x4.. youd know if something in the front end was going.. noisy as all HELLL
 
no unusual noise from the front end

the vibration in the back is pretty steady and gentle.

i'll diagnose in a week or so when/if it warms up around here.

2 piece drive shaft?.. could be that bearing there too...

the possibilitys are endless lol.. tires out of balance?

u might want to diag that ASAP.. where as its very cold.. joints fatigue etc and the metals become weak and brittle.. you dont want to keep stressing a u joint if thats what it is.. my vibration wasnt constant.. normally 40 in 3rd gear and 70 in OD.. really noticed it on the highway when i let off the gas, truck did not want to coast, just vibration and slowed right down
