Well I changed the front shaft all the joints were good the center ball in the cardigin was rusted and stiff I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it with my own eyes is it worth getting that shaft fixed. It has no grease fittings?

My new to me D2 is at 199k miles - ujoints were replaced in the past but experiencing the same thing as noted in the linked thread.
Vibration about 75mph for me.
Will have to examine and consider a new shaft............. (thats what she said)
