Still experiencing bad vibs!!!!
I'm still experiencing major vibs at speeds of 60mph & up. I've replace all u-joints and have tried 2 driveshafts...1 steel & stock 1LE aluminum. It's still there. Pinion bearing feels tight too. The vib feels like a bad u-joint but obviously isn't. An obvious question would be tire balancing but I had them rebalanced and it's still there. I've also jacked up the car and put it in gear looking for obvious wobbling of the tires from a bent axle and checked the rear alignment and everything looks good. Next step is to put it on a dyno which will be pricey! Any ideas, suggestions, or similar experiences?
