I've got a 74 Dart Sport with a 318, 8 3/4 rear with 3:23 open gears. I'm still having a vibration, lets see if I can describe it. It feels like its going "whoomp, whoomp" anywhere from 45 to 60mph. I haven't went higher to see if it will go away. It almost feels like when you go over the speed bumps that alert you there is a stop sign ahead, just not as pronounced.
I had a bolt that bolts the tail housing to the crossmember loose before, will check again to make sure it's still tight. Was it loose causing a vibration or did the vibration cause it to be loose, I'm not sure. I have had this vibration with 2 different rears and 2 different driveshafts, but to be honest I think both driveshafts had been shortened by someone in the past.
Going to put it on jack stands and see what happens, also will pull the driveshaft and see if it goes away. Any other things I should check? Also, if I find out what I need is a new driveshaft, where is a good place to get one. There are no driveshaft shops near me.
Thanks,
Russell
