Long story short I had an independent dealer send the driveshaft off to a firm that serviced drive shafts for all manner of.
Tundras do have a known minor problem with axle wrap many people complained of a vibration between 40-55mph coming from the rear general census of the shop is because the Tundra is really light in the rear and the shimmy tends to go right to the center console even if the tires are balanced perfectly tires arent completely round and do have runout which can be excessive at times. Its like you are driving on the rumble strips cut into the road prior to coming to a stop sign. The 2006 Toyota Tundra has 17 NHTSA complaints for the power train at 85235 miles average.
The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer and the contact was informed that the driveshaft failred causing the vibration failure. Use the following repair procedure to address this condition. The failure mileage was 79000 and the current mileage 80600.
This is caused by an improperly balanced rear driveshaft propeller shaft. It only happens at that speed. I have a 2000 Toyota Tundra in great shape with 69000 miles.
My 2002 Tundra Limited 47 V-8 has about 258000 miles on the clock. I cant believe that this is finally fixed. It is most noticeable at driving speeds not just creeping along.
Average repair cost is 3000 at 124000 miles. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer replaced the front differential but it is still there.
