Wouldnt that give me a constant vibe? Weird thing is, this vibe is sometimes hardly felt, at any speed. Then sure enough, there it is on the way to work in the morning and not on the way home,,,and vice-versa. Perhaps the bushing is bad and is moving around a little?

Oh, my exhaust system is very tight btw.

Sometimes when there is no or very little give, a vibration like you have occurs..

If the bushing does not do it, will address!! Thanks

New bushing helped a lot. But this time i'm not jumping the gun. Gonna test it a few days.

Nah!!!,,,still have pulse vibe at 40-45mph. Just the same-just as bad!! Getting brand new dshaft made monday. After that i give up. Anyone know of any long steep cliffs? I already have the brick for the gas pedal.

i wouldnt jump to a new shaft. anyway to use someones or find another.

philo_beddoe · « **Reply #21 on:** September 16, 2016, 04:37:23 PM »

$200 for the new. I already have new yoke and ujoints. I'll pay to make any frustration go away.

Oh, the dshaft shop did the quick fix. They said my dshaft was modified at some point, i think shortened, the welds are different. Thus...new shaft.

I'm going to be completely frank here, have you had Vile drive it and feel this vibration to even determine if it's normal or not.

philo_beddoe · « **Reply #23 on:** September 16, 2016, 10:19:36 PM »

This is my last shot. Then i'll go crying to him if this doesnt do it. I have a gut feeling its the dshaft though.

I like to go as far as i can before i throw in the towel. Lol

I would have started with him feeling it FIRST, then develop an repair approach.

Zieg mentioned my exhaust, i unhooked the rear and it seems better, it was tight to the cross member. Will keep testing. Unhooking front too. Stay tuned.

philo_beddoe · « **Reply #26 on:** September 17, 2016, 09:14:05 PM »

No, its not the exhaust at all.

philo_beddoe · « **Reply #27 on:** September 19, 2016, 05:07:38 PM »

Dropped off dshaft this morning, turns out my original was modified and a little short, thus not sleeved far enough onto the tranny tailshaft. Plus the shaft itself is outta whack. Will post results of brand new shaft. And if thats not it, im dropping truck off at VZ's with a note and a pile of cash on the front seat. Lol

philo_beddoe · « **Reply #28 on:** September 24, 2016, 09:17:00 PM »

Brand new:
Driveshaft
Front yoke and bushing
U-joints

I can still feel a vibe down there. And i'm all out of ideas. At wits end!!! Now i need some help. I can no longer do or think of anything else.

Do you know anyone that you could borrow their tires and wheels to rule out a tire/rim issue?
