It is just a groaning vibration at 650 rpms you give a little fuel up to about 800 rpms and it smooths out.

i saw this thread and had to ask if any of you guys figuerd out what was causing your vibrations. Cause mine is doing the exaact same thing. I shakes at idle and when in drive and on the brake or in reverse. But it smooths out with throttle. I thought it could be the torq convert, but i dunno. Hey Marc do you have any more ideas to the problem? Truck runs fine drives fine, powers all there, but it shakes noticably at idle.
