• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

08 TE 610 And a Vibration

Check your motor mounts. I have read a few posts that seems a common cause of the vibration.

Thats what mine was. The mount up under the gas tank has a couple screws that were less than hand tight. I tightened those up and all is good.
 
Like others have said, the first step is to check all the mounts on the engine and exhaust. After that you may need to look at the retaining nuts on the crankshaft and counter balance, there have been a couple of instances where they were not tight enough and sheered the woodruff keys. It's not a big deal if you catch it early but don't let it go to the point that something spins on the shaft, that could be bad.
