The first sign of a dual-mass flywheel problem is it being in the truck

Single is the only way to go.

I've done some shopping already. The reason I ask, is I get a slight shake at idle, but when I go down the road at freeway speed (around 75), it really gets bad. At first I thought it was suspension related, but after replacing the shocks, re-balancing the wheels, rechecking all the U-joints and drive lines, it's still there. I'm thinking South Bend clutch with a solid flywheel.
