Do you feel it thru the seat, or the steering wheel?

I would be tempted to have the tires rotated/balanced, and see if the issue changes at all.

i feel it in the entire truck, seat, steering and dash. But like I said it is only between 20-30 kph on deceleration. I guess I could try having them ballenced and rotated as it couldn't hurt.

Might wanna have a look at the steering..... it's possible they left something loose, and that is what you are feeling. Have you taken the truck back to them, to have it checked?
