    I think thats one topic we need to discuss so we have it here on this forum.

    My bed shakes Violently! Any time I am goin 50+ you can feel it shake, sometimes so hard I think the bed is bout to shake off. But then there are times that it wont shake at all.

    I thought I read before that there was a "system" on the truck that was supposed to act as a counter weight for this very thing. Is this right? if so, isn't it that canister looking system near the spare tire location? Would this need to be replaced over time like normal wear and tear items, shocks, struts, etc? Thanks!

    well...more like a bubble in the tire....somtimes you get a broke belt in tread and it will cuse the bed to shake...i have seen this a thousand times before...its often the simplest things that get overlooked...

    I had the shaking before that incident. the bend is so minor. i'm just a perfectionist and like my **** tight. lol. i guess I'll check the tires today. if that is a problem, all i can do is get a new tire? that would suck balls
