Also happens when in reverse. Drive line doesn't seem to be loose. U/H joint?? Also vibration under acceleration. Have an 80 yota, stock gears, rollin 35's.

The question is, can I let it go for a while before I really need to replace them? I know they really aren't that expensive in the long run, but I'd rather hold off as long as I can. What are the adverse affects of not replacing them now? Thanks ahead of time.

Center bearings and joints on split drive shafts are notorious for quick failure once they dry out. Front and back ones are wobbly until you cannot stand it any more. If you have never replaced any on a shaft, do them all. the labor is getting the unit in and out. A good drive shaft shop will knock them out in a flash, probably while you wait if they are not swamped. trafdlo Moderated by  4Crawler, 4x4Wire, kewlynx  Hop To Mitsubishi Forums ------  Mitsubishi 4x4 and SUV Tech  Mitsubishi Diesels  Mitsubishi ArchiveToyota Forums ------  Early Toyota Trucks  Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser &...  T100 & Tundra Forum  Tacoma Forum  Toyota Tech ArchiveJeep Forums ------  Jeep Talk  Jeep TechIsuzu Forums ------  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Talk  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Tech  Isuzu DieselsKia Forums ------  Kia Talk  Kia Sportage & Sorento TechOff Topic Chat ------  4x4 Gallery  Off-Topic Chat  Recreational Access & Land ...  Politics4xForums ------  Outdoor Gear  General 4x4 Discussion  Tools and Fabrication  General Communications  Amateur Radio  GPS and MapsParts Bin ------  Private Party - Garage Sale  Private Party - Items wanted  Vendors, Hot Deals, Group Buys4x4Wire Back Yard ------  Suzuki Forum  AZ Crawler Crew  Cal-Nev Crew  General Ford 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Dodge 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Chevy 4x4 & SUV ForumFeedback & Testing ------  Problems, Questions, Suggestions4x4Wire Staff ------  Forum Moderators  Problem Threads Print Thread Switch to Threaded Mode 5 Excellent 4 Good 3 Average 2 Bad 1 Terrible View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts
