horrible vibrations
The ladys love it but it drives me insane, i just had the trans and clutch replaces and all new wheels and tires perfectly ballanced, it had the vibration before i did all this, the trans blew up and i thought that was the problem so i got a new one and had a full alignment done, and it still makes a horrible vibration, it doesnt seem to be threw the sterring tho, more seat of the pants, and it doesnt start till around 45-50 mph and it just gets worse at a steady rate when i accelerate,and i mean it gets bad, at like a 100+ i think im going to die, or the wheels are gunna fall off, i mean its just scary, im thinking, maybe the drive shaft is out of balance, or the rear has a bent axle or something, i have a set of 373 im planing on putting in but i was trying to find out what else i should up grade at the same time, like 31 spline axles and a 31 spline lsd and an aluminum drive shaft, i was wondering what you would suggest i replace these parts with, its a 1994 GT 8.8 rear, 5speed, i have a stage 2 clutch, i have the gears already so what else should i get,
Thanks
Ted

If it shakes the seat of your pants its coming from the rear of the vehicle. Im thinkin that your driveshaft is "out of phase". Meaning they didnt re-install it in the same position as they took it off in. Youre supposed to mark the yoke and the pinion flange with some paint or a mark you can recognize and re-install it the same exact way. IF its not itll cause bad vibes.
