Truck bought in 1990. Previous owner (geda scott, glascow, mt.) replace u-joints and carrier bearings. in october 1990 I replaced u-joints. Constant driveline vibration. dealer (webster chevrolet, cody, wy) claimed it was tires. Dealer also stated that there were no driveline problems with this truck. Tires rebalanced, replaced. new rims put on. vibration continued. at about 1996 had transfer case seal go out and lost all fluid. Second dealer (garvin motors, powell,wy) stated no problem with driveline. said general motors would not help with problem. vehicle presently must have u-joints replaced (3RD time) and carrier bearing replaced (2ND time). Did gm ever recall this vehicle for driveline problems? Have heard they had hidden warranty on extended cab trucks for driveline problems, but I have been denied assistance 2 times by 2 different dealers. can you help. thanks muchly.
