Say what?!?!
My blue 97 developed a vibration from 40MPH to 65MPH and I'll be damned, if I can find it! I originally thought it was the carrier bearing, since the rubber in the old one was toast. Wrong... While I was doing the carrier bearing, I checked the U-joints and all three are tight. I was also told that the differential carrier bearings would cause the same type of vibration, so I changed them. No difference. Then, I got a suggestion that it could be front wheel bearings. No such luck.. The vibration is not engine RPM related. It is also there, if I'm at speed and in neutral. It also does not go away, when decelerating.
I can only think of a few possible things that it could be and would like some OB opinions...
1) I could go ahead and change the U-joints...
2) I could take the rear section of the drive shaft out and have it checked for balance.
3) Rear wheel bearings??
Please help me out here guys...
