Got a strange vibration coming from the back end, this part immediately to the right of the driver side wheel. What is this?

It's intermittent, and doesn't usually last more than a few seconds.

that is the pump for the auto leveling suspension. it will turn on automatically when the back end is sagging below a certain threshold.

this is normal and can happen at any time.

Chopp- FYI, you can also adjust your ride height via that sensor that is on the right side of the picture (just to the left of the outside bottom of the tire).

yeah it's pretty nifty, just know that it WILL mess with your alignment a bit ;)
