Im lost without the PW thread!!!!

[thtrog]

I got my truck back and it's still not right. It drives straight now, but still has a vibration in the drive train. Could it be the drive shaft???

[chpthril]

what's up with Tanner and Nickypoo

Dunno, what

[knottsindy]

back at work, for yet another exhilirating night.


yeah

[thtrog]

It starts vibrating at 20 - 25 mph and then stops as I speed up, but does not come back again until you go to stop at about the same speed.

[knottsindy]

holy crap! how do you guys find time to put up so many posts and still lead what i assume to somewhat normal lives?

[thtrog]

Dunno, what

read the thread Tanner posted this morning in general about the motor rebuild

Could be drive shaft, drive shaft angle or axle shafts or housing.

Welcome knotts, this is not normal?

[knottsindy]

thats awful...I'm no mechanic but what have you investigated so far?

The drive shaft came out at the rear housing on impact. I'm going to drive it the weekend and take it back Monday.

Thanks, glad to be here...normal has always had a somewhat subjective context as far as I'm concerned!!

I'm guessing there was an unfortunate encounter with another object?

It's been in the shop about six weeks from a wreck in March. I got it back a couple weeks ago, but it went back in for a new rear end....they are over $14,000 in repairs.

Oh man, its been soo long since I have worked in depth with vibrations, cant remember if thats a 1st order or 2nd order.

[knottsindy]
