Default Vibration and Heating&Cooling

I got 2 issues with my 05 Dakota Laramie. So I had my U-Joints replaced and there's still a vibration. Its happens between 35-45, I know are trucks have the Mid Shift Bearing and I have been told it could be that, but I was trying to get other opinion's before I assume it's that, the Stealership checked it over again and checked the tires and said that's not it and then tried to tell me that it cause I need a tune up haha very funny. Has anybody replaced that bearing and if so how much was the damage. Or what do you guys think could it be something else.
Is there a back order on heating and cooling part's. What I am talking about is the harness that connects to the blower motor resistor, I guess there's huge back order on this issue and Dodge knows about it but won't make it a recall.

is it vibrating while just cruising or when you are accelerating or braking?

Think me and you have the same problem. Mine does it at the same speed, light/heavy/no throttle. All I can say is I've been to the dealer 3 times with no luck. They want me to leave it for a week, which I'll do one of these days when need of a vehicle or money isn't an issue.
