Re: driveline vibe ??

Did you mark the front and rear halves of the driveshafts to keep them aligned properly? If you didnt put the two halves back together the same way you took them apart you can get a vibration because the 2 piece driveshafts are balanced as an assembly, not as seperate halves.

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.

Re: driveline vibe ??

sorry about the long wait...hate not having internet...

I thought the 2 pieces only went back together 1 way, theres one larger spline.
it doesn't help that the yoke on the rear was welding on and never balanced, but before i replaced the carrier bearing the vibration wasn't this bad
