I've got a slight to moderate vibration throughout the cab.. It feels like it could be a loose engine or exhaust mounting but I haven't been able to find anything.

Any other ideas or points to check?

Thanks!Which joints do you mean?

The vibe is easily felt when I rev it in neutral.

in neutral and not moving? if so, check the motor mounts first.

could be warped rotors

Excuse my ignorance here, sorry. What are rotors? Im in south africa so maybe the terminology is different..

I took the truck to the shop yesterday and they guessed at the flywheel being out of balance. Does that sound possible?
Also would a vibration like this also be caused by the timing being out, like if the belt has skipped a tooth?
The vibration is most evident at a certain low rev around 2000. Everything starts shaking.

rotors are used on your brakes.. on a mazda.. it would be your front brakes.. it would be what the brake pads catchs on.... and on my one mazda.. it does the same when i reach about 90 km/h

Oh ok cool, thanks! Ive got this vibration at idle.

Ive checked the timing and it seems fine. However it looks like its HALF a tooth out when I check with a light? Is that possible? At rest crank and cam line up perfectly.
