driveshafts

[digger]

i want drive shafts as ive got crazy vibration after 63mph and have no idea what it is.

Ive had wheels balanced a few times, bought new wheels in case there was a buckle, changed tyres to p6000, had tracking done this sorted it for a while but left the steering wheel sitting slightly left but vibration is back now and I'm thinking of buying front suspension to see if that fixes it.

Have you thought about changing your front bushes? I had severe vibration under high speed braking and I happened to get the Powerflex front bush kit and the vibration went away.

 

[digger]

its a possibility but its £80 for the kit, and its newish wishbones well bout a year. (i suppose it could be) dunno..

 

[JohnnyN]

You needn't go for the Powerflex kit. Just go for standard ones.

 

[digger]

would an engine mount bush cause vibration? its worse when i accelerate hard when i get over 60

I did read a thread over on VVOC a few days ago about a chap that had changed his wheel bolts recently and they had the wrong taper on them causing a wheel vibration.

nah its the same bolts thats always been on it.
