Can worn cv shafts cause i vibration even with hubs unlocked in 2wd? i get a bad vibration/shake around 45-50 nomatter what, speeding up slowing down coasting, anything. i found both shafts have some play but they arent moving with the wheels when the hubs are unlocked right?

if your hubs are unlocked then it sounds like u-joints

I vote rear U joints in the rear driveshaft....

but all the shake is in the front end coming through the steering wheel, i can take my hand off the wheel for a second and hardly feel anything in the seat/floor. i also tried swapping out the 32s for stock size tires up front and its a little better but still there

I'm with Oregon. When I my idler arm was bad on my truck, I had a vibration between 45-50, thagot worse over time. Check your front suspension components and go from there.

just gave the front end a good once over, everthing seems good and tight except the driver side upper ball joint has some play. going to grab one and swap it out hopefully she rides like a cadillac again

no luck with the balljoint. idler arm had just a tiny tiny hint of play so ill try that next. if thats not it ill rebuild the whole front end
