I have a black belly 7060 with only 4400 hours on it. I have a vibration coming through the floor that comes and goes. very hard to notice but it is there. Its power shift and doesn't matter what gear I'm in. Is more often when under load. Any ideas what this could be?

Make a difference leaning left or right ?? I'd suspect 40 year old cab mounts flattened out.

I haven't noticed left or right but I will try different angles and report back. It does do it going down the road as well but that's not says road it straight.

Bad cab mounts can cause all kinds of noises, not necessarily a vibration. More a growling/humming noise that makes one think there's a bearing going out somewhere.

Agree withDrAllis on the noise description. Checked one and thought a bearing was going out. Pulled the floor plate to possibly hear better.

Found someone stuffed too long of a bolt in the floor. It was bottoming out on the top of the transmission. Installed shorter bolt and noise went away.

Put new mounts on a 8070 fwd, huge difference. Thought I had tranny issues also
