Took my truck out for a wheel on the weekend and now she shakes at about 80k's. Real bad at 100k's. The whole truck just vibrates. It doesn't really affect steering, it's just everything rattles and is farking annoying.
I have tightened the diff pinion nut (that was real loose) and that seems good now but hasn't had the slightest effect on the shakes.
Shakes get worse when I put the clutch in.
What could it be?

check that your tail shaft isn't gouged out etc. the one on my ute was and it shuttered real bad (new custom 1 $200 think it cost me). i have also had the same problems with tyre balances at other times
