Very first thing to check are the U-Joints.   If they are worn the shaft =
will spin in an eccentric pattern and cause your vibration.   If the =
joints are OK take it to a good driveline shop and have it balanced, and =
replace the U-Joints anyway while the shaft is out of the car.

FoT,


I have a driveline vibration that doesn't start up until I get to about =
95- 100 MPH. I figured I would start with the driveshaft

before looking into the diff or OD/trans. I have an IRS car with Richard =
Good CV axles and hubs so it's very un likely its that but

I will inspect them. I'm wondering if anybody has any advice on high =
speed vibration diagnosis or detection.

What I'm wondering is even if it is the driveshaft how would I know with =
it sitting on my bench.=20

Any help would, as always be greatly appreciated.

Jim g
