How to Diagnose Vibration
#11
Phew, at the 11th hour LolisDisco. Good premonition to take a look.
Regards rebuild or new shaft, if you are good with spanners and engineering and have ingenuity you can rebuild the Cardan but be warned though it's a real PITA job. The single UJ's and rotoflex are a simple job but reassembling the Cardan (Hookes joint) and removing the centre bearing and refitting it are a real PITA. IMHO, if I were you I'd go for a complete new shaft with UJ grease zerks and fit that unless you are very confident with your spannering abilities.

I can't move the truck around the block with the front shaft out?
By the way I'm going to order a new shaft from Lucky 8 on Monday.
I found a local junk yard that has the old original style for $300. No way
Thanks
