Hyundai HL730XTD-7 wheel loader has harsh vibration…

Hey...has anyone had a wheel loader that had a very harsh vibrating noise when travelling in high gear? I have a Hyundai wheel loader that starts a tremendous racket as soon as I select fourth speed. It sounds like a panel that's bolted loosely but I've checked and can't find anything loose. I'm wondering if the differential or hubs could be the noise. Any ideas anyone?

    Check driveshaft for bad U-joint or assembled out of phase.

    Checked the joints and they all look ok. These are Spicer type joints that bolt into position.

    sounds like it is speed and not RPM related...wheel and hub bearings, look for hot spot or a tire bulge. Howard
