A while back my friend had his f150 drive shaft balanced from a local shop that specializes in it and it didnt take too much time, dropped it off in the morning and picked it up within a couple of hours and we werent even first in line. Cost him ~$60 cash i think after some haggling but this was 3-4years ago so not sure what the rates would be like today but d guess between $80-140 ??

Short answer yes. Going to try a few things ans see what happens and this is one of them. I think i can take it out myself and bring it somewhere...just need to find some info on taking it out... but not sure if anyone has done it before

Seat vibrate as well as the wheel. Seems like the whole chassis vibrates almost but not 100% on that. So hard to pinpoint it. Where in CT? By Foxwoods? i am there a lot LOL

It was about $200 for the driver's side off eBay.
It's definitely difficult to diagnose vibrations over the internet, as well as clunking or popping noises...do you have any clunking noises?
I don't know what was looked at, but if you feel feedback through the steering wheel, I would start at the outer tie rods, inner tie rods, and check to see if the steering rack is leaking. Are any ball joints leaking? Either on the compression rod, steering knuckle, or upper control arm. You may have to take each arm off and jiggle the ball joint.
Never heard of a drive shaft issue on any G.
Can you also post your alignment numbers.
