Two major problems;
Front pinion bearing destroyed itself;
rear rebuilt, but problem 2 showed up in the form of a very strong low frequency vibration or humm at 68 to 72 mph.
New driveshaft installed, 60 percent improvemnet, but humm still there
Entire rearend assembly replaced, the humm is now 90 percent gone,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ARRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!

I hate how all the kids bringing carts in at the grocery store want to slerp on my car. I have 13500 or so miles and no problems to speak of. I am not aware of a fuel injection problem, just fuel tank vapor issues. If you boss wants a cool car that is fun to drive the Mustang GT is a good car.

Did the humm go away when you pushed in the clutch and coasted? Was the humm like there for a second, go away for a second come back for a second, go away for a second? hmmmm hmmmmmm hmmmmmm hmmmmm hmmmmmm. lol like that?
I thought it was the tires, or wheel bearing. snow tires on, same noise. Then I noticed pushing in the clutch it would go away. You can feel it on your feet even sometimes.
Sorry, noticed this issue a while ago, havent had time to bring it in, or even try to describe it on here.

My car is going to the shop next week....the drivetrain sounds like SHI*....Rear end, noise in front of tranny...noisey when just letting the clutch out without hitting the gas pedal...I don't mind noises from High Performance parts, but this is a joke!!
