Pedal vibration at higher speeds

[24stx87]

Does anyone else share pedal vibrations at higher speeds? I feel it more at 60-65mph than most speeds. It doesn’t really get any worse above 65, and below 60mph I don’t really feel it.

no other vibrations in the truck. It is solely felt in the gas pedal and I suppose the floor board as well.

Some roads I feel it more, such as wide open highways. On a single lane country road with trees in the side (blocking cross winds) it is much better.

in thinking it is wind cause if more vibrations - anyone else have this too?

I also experience this vibration. I thought something was wrong when I first bought my truck, but noticed it was different/worse when I upgraded tires. On mine it is a harmonic kind of feel.

it is most noticeable on county backroads that have been chip & sealed.

Yeah, I think mine is a combination of what type of pavement it is and the wind speed (whether that is from my speed or in combination with how windy the weather is). Probably doesn’t help the truck is shaped like a brick with no aerodynamics

Yes, First it happened after I had free oil change at dealership, the fiberglass oil pan cover was installed with the front under the cross member causing it to slap on the cross member when it caught air at speed. My kids said they saw something hanging under the truck while traveling in front of me on the freeway at speed. Then it came back but manifested it self at slower speeds and never went away at higher speeds it just came at a higher frequency. The service tech took a ride with me for about a mile and said “it’s the front wheel bearing, after putting it on the rack he came out with keys to a loaner and said that both front wheel bearings were bad and he would have to order them. When I picked the truck up I was surprised at how much better it was. That was 10k miles ago. It’s still smooth. Good luck.

Same here and it was happening on stock tires and suspension but it is slightly worse with the levelled truck on bigger wheels. I don't see the connection but it could be the air dam. I want to find out if the guys who removed their air dam still experience the same vibration.

Did you level with adjustable struts lot pucks? If with struts a 4 wheel alignment is advised. If you did this then look at the oil pan fiberglass protector is installed correctly. Lastly have your front wheel bearings inspected. This is assuming the condition existed before new rims and tires as well as trusting the tires are balanced. The air dam on my truck rattled and whistled I don’t think it contributed to the vibration. I do know that when you have a 18 year old 4x4 with 200k and it’s smoother than a 50k new truck it is very aggravating. Good luck.

Complete Eibach strut assemblies and I did have alignment done. The diaper was removed and replaced by Talon Garage full skid plate. There is absolutely no gas pedal vibration until that 60 or 65mph speed. It's not a crazy vibration but it is there and you feel it under your foot. You wouldn't feel any vibration if you take your foot off the gas pedal.
