Shaking in driveshaft.
« on: March 17, 2010, 05:05:38 PM »
Well, when in first gear, my driveshaft shakes quite a bit, depending on how hard I'm accelerating. It only shakes from 2k-3k RPM. I recently replaced my center support bearing.
I'm thinking it could be my thrust bearing...
But, I'm hoping that's not true because this is my daily driver, and I really don't have much time for a rebuild right now. Any suggestions?

I\'m just a kid. I lack knowledge.

I wasn't even aware that had to be done.
This is my first car...
Ehhh...
I'll check that out tomorrow. Thanks.

That's most likely it seeing as I have symptoms completely identical to other people that didn't preload their CSBs. Thanks again.
