after my leveling kit was installed i had a vibration noise that sounds like it is coming from the drivers side it sounds like i am running over the strips on the side of the road that make a noise when u hit them (hard to describe) i can barely hear it over the tires but know its there it doesnt get louder no matter what i do (accelerate,slow down,etc...) it is similar to a slight hum and seems to go away if i switch to 4wheel drive any body else had anything that sounds like this. tough to describe over the computer its a 09 gmc sierra btw thanks

Check your lugnuts on your wheels. I had a similar issue once- after doing some work on the brakes, I had a nasty vibration up front, and it only went away when I put it in 4x4. The mechanic went over it with a fine-tooth comb, and it turned out the lugnuts were loose.

Did you get an alignment done after the kit was installed? I don't know how bad the leveling kit throws off the alignment, but it might have something to do with it if it's bad enough..
