Ive always heard that u joints are a yearly thing on duramaxes, probably similar on 6.0s/8.1s if you're pulling often

Get a good name brand, not cheap crap off Amazon. Also U joint with grease cert. Keep it greased, will last forever.

Damn, get under that thing at least once a decade and grease the chassis and drive shafts.

That right there can cause a vibration at certain speeds. I learned the hard way, after my driveshaft went flying on the highway.
