Default 40 to 60 mph Vibration Update fixed

If you remember I posted having a problem with a vibration between 40 and 60 mph.
Well it turns out that there was some kind of recall regarding the front bearings and hubs
where they used some shims as a fix???
Well my shims as qouted by the service guy were flattened out and tahat was causing the vibration and as I found out after the repair the steering was a lot tighter and more crisp.
They replaced the front hubs an bearings.
When I go back I'll ask for tsb

I have a vibration at about 75 mph which doesn't feel like unbalanced wheels. I also have a 2004 5 speed. I was just going to have my wheels rotated just in case, but now I'll wait for your post with the TSB and will complain to the dealer.

Ever since I retired with those Yokos my ride is silky smooth at any speed under 100 mph. That is as fast as I hve gone so far.
