Swap the shocks and wheels out of an LE, put the pro4 wheels back on and you shall get your result.(Not very likely, as at most dealers the tech will not get paid since nissan does not pay) Nissan notoriously does not propagate any information regarding fixes from dealer to dealer. Many times they will deny any knowledge of having a record on whatever you are calling about only to find out later that they could have told you what was wrong in the first place and save you an afternoon chasing a problem for which the technician may not get paid. All it means that my crew is on the ball and yours is not in this case. Which in reality turns out to be irrelevant because under warranty you can not install different parts unless otherwise authorized or noted by a TSB.
Sorry for the endless sentence,gotta go Pats are on.

If it's the shocks, why change the wheels also? There's nothing a shock does that would cause the truck to vibrate. A broken shock would cause a bounce but...lol...not the vibration mentioned here. Now a bad wheel and/or tire? certainly. So if your changing out the shocks AND the wheels fixed it, the shocks probably weren't the culprit.
