Hi, i just stumped on my friend 2x4 toytoy and found out that his has a vibration damper at the rear of the driveshaft.
It is sandwiched in between the drivesahft itself and the differential. Like a rubber donut.
I am wondering about this part number and price. I cant find it anywhere into the FSM's.
Any idea is this factory ??

thanks.

 

They are available at your local Krispy Kreme, in the bin at the back.

Seriously though, didn't know they had a vibration damper on the prop shaft. Theres a weight hanging off the T case on mine that I'm pretty sure damps vibrations.

 

I have seen diesel trucks that have rubber donut weights on the driveshaft to minimize vibrations.

 

yeah, I've even seen them on early 2000 model 2wd Ford rangers (my cousine lost his on his 03 Ranger out wheeling), but never seen one on a Toy... strange...

 

diesel...humm...

sorry if it is from a bimmer web site, look at the part #2, exactly like that but at the rear diff. I am not talking about a weight that cathes a vibe, be realy like a harmonic damper (that we can find on the crankshaft)
