  1. Okay I had a driveline vibration from about 40-50 before I worked on the car whether I was on the throttle or not but it cruised fine. I have new tires, no bent rims, bearings seem good. I had a bad CV shaft so I replaced it with a good used one. At the same time I did all new MK1 master poly bushing kit, brakes, rotors, springs, etc. Since I did all that I still have a vibration but it's very bad from 40 on up in any gear but it only vibrates when I'm accelerating or decelerating. If I match the RPM's with the speed of the car the vibration goes away. Doesn't vibrate at all below 40. The rear end clunks a bit when I put it in gear, but I do have a stage 2 clutch. I also installed Eibach Pro Kit springs. Questions: Are the CV shafts directional? Could I have accidentally put a right side shaft in the left causing a vibration? How can I check the torque tube or U-joints? I rotated them with the drive shaft off and the play seemed minimal at best. Why would replacing one shaft make the vibration so much worse? I thought maybe the tighter bushings made it more noticeable but the vibration behavior has changed completely. Only on decel and accel and none below 40. Who could I look for to replace the U joints and rebalance the drive shaft? I imagine I can do it myself but I did a search and found they are balanced. Who can service a torque tube if need be? Sorry for all the questions but I just spent a week redoing the suspension and this kinda bugs the crap out of me.

  9. I sent my last payment of $200.00 via PayPal to you today. I am using a friend's account since I don't have PayPal and I am curious if you could ship it to my address instead of his.
