Truck Vibration

I have a 2002 Chevy silverado duramax and at 4-6 mph the truck doesn't feel like it rolling smoothly. It can be felt in both forward and reverse. The brakes are all good, and both front wheelbearing were recently replaced. I can't seem to find a logical cause to whats happening.

when was the last time your tranny was serviced it sounds like your tranny is almost slipping and that is what you are feeling it could have something to do with your torque converter also

sounds to me like a tire that is out of round, I would take to a full service tire shop and have them check it out good, just make sure that they "Load Test" them, if they do not have that capability then take it to a shop that does.

U-joints maybe?

I took the driveshaft off yesterday and the u-joints seem to be fine. I also checked the fluid in everything.

I thought it may be the tires, but you don't feel it when you're going any faster.

The vibration just happened to me, didn't notice it at speed but when I slowed down and came to a stop the whole truck was shaking. Is that what you're talking about? It was also vibrating just sitting in park. Dealer called me today and said it was the injectors, there was a lot of fuel in the oil.
When you said it was happening out of gear I figured I'd better let you know what happened to me.

not the tires,there is no tire that is out of round gonna cause a vibration under 30-40MPH unless you have belts slipping then i can cause a vibration at lower speeds but its still around 15-30MPH that you feel a vibration.
