Weird rhythmic bump
So just recently I noticed a weird rethmic bump in my truck that seems to be coming from the rear end. The truck is a 2wd non limited slip diff. At first I thought the truck had a broken axle but after putting it in the air and spinning one side tire the other turned the opposite direction like normal. I then put the truck under its own power and at idle only one tire rotated. I’m not to sure if that’s normal but again both tires rotated when in park. I also checked both sides for any sign of dragging but couldn’t feel anything abnormal. My only guess is it is something in the front end but I don’t feel in vibration or jerking in the steering wheel. The bump is almost like someone tied a board to the rim of my tire and I’m constantly running over it because it increases with speed.

this is a little late but i did find what the issue was. my front right tire had a separated belt and tread and ended up letting go on the highway. luckily it caused no damage other than needing a new tire. a few weeks later I discovered that the front left tire was nearing the same fat, with a large bulge in the tread from where there was separation and noticed that the tread pattern was a little wavy side to side. im glad i caught it when i did or else that truck may have found an early grave on the highway.
