Subject: Re: vibration


Robert (and any one else who cares!) I was experiencing the same thing on my '85 turbo, I replaced wheel bearings, axles, repacked everything, replaced the ball joints and tie-rods. Knocked myself in the head, swore, and all types of things. Then my sanity was saved, not that I'm sane, but, it was. I replaced the cv joint socket that comes out of the diff. no noise, no vibrations. I hope this helps. You should be able to get to most everything from the diff cover on the back of your tranny. Have fun! Larry Robert L Coleman wrote in message <6dkrga$t4g$1nopsamsvr04-int.news.prodigy.com>... >I've been experiencing a very noticeable vibration between the speeds of >45-65 mph.
