<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> My buddy is telling me that if it's a dif issue I could drain the fluid within 200 miles or so and I would show metal in the fluid. Would you guys agree? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Regardless if something is wrong, if you drain the fluid in 200 miles, you're gonna get metal shavings... it doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong, you've got new parts... they're gonna leave a fine metallically look.

Now, if you drain it a couple of thousand miles after the first drain and you still have it, then I'd say you're on the way to having a problem.

Judging from what you've described, I'm agreeing with the lug theory. Tires with big lugs will definitely make a noise/vibration at 10 mph'ish speeds.

Like we said, the easiest way to test that theory is to put the stock tires and wheels on.

HTH's,
