 I'm getting a bit of vibration and wiggle in the rear of the car at 60-65 MPH, irregardless of the RPM or gear that i'm in, and smoothes out over 65MPH. This would lead me to believe that it's something wrong from the trans shafts outward. Any suggestions on how to check play on the wheel bearings without a big teardown? Other ideas? Wheels and tires are in good shape and balanced... Thanks |
