vibration
I had my U-Joints replaced, and the vibration I had around 65 mph went almost away. It's been a couple of months, and it's starting to come back. Could the driveshaft need to be balanced? Anything else it could be? When I got the U-Joints out a couple months ago, they were shot, so I think the driveshaft might be vibrating.

Driveshaft could be bent or unbalanced.
I got mine fixed for $75. Mine was bent and unbalanced.
Oh yeah, that included new u-joints.

I was reading somewhere that the facrory driveshafts had some sort of sound deading (sp??) material inside and after a few years the material would shrink or shift or something and cause an out of balance condition even though the shaft wasn't bent.
Anyone else ever heard this before?
