vibration 45-60 mph

88 truck
thought it was my rear driveshaft ujoint at the t case but i replaced it and the vibration got a little better but not much...i jacked up the front end and didn't find anything to be abnormaly loose or anything... stumped... could it have something to do with the t bars being cranked up?

u might wana try greasing all of the fittings in the drive line, i had the same problem a lil while back, and i just greased everything and the vibration went away in like 2 days, i guess it just really needed to be greased, hahaha

it can, if you never had the truck re-aligned afterwords.

as a side note, don't you have to re-balance a driveshaft after installing new u-joints?

I cranked my torsion bars and it didn't make any difference in vibration. When I changed tires however (used), I got a strong vibe from just about the same speed...45-60.

what brian said could be it, and it could be your tires are out of balance.. id start with getting your tires re ballanced its cheap and easy. i bet you it will help a lot

rebalance tires and get your driveshaft re-balanced too. The weight on it, very likley could have been stripped off while wheeling... Did you hit your driveshaft recently? That can do it too...
