how are your boots on your CV joints? If they are split like mine your joints are dry & heat up at that speed - try shooting a lot of grease into all 4 joints (2 inner & 2 outer) and see if that helps - if it does then you should think about having them rebuilt (approx $100 per axle) if you are over 80,000 mi.

just resolved the same issue w/my 85 brat. You have 2 choices - NAPA part #95-3157 is the complete replacement axle w/new CV joints & boots - they gave me a price of $84 +freight per axle - but I found a steering repair specialist locally that rebuilt both front axles (removed, rebuilt the original CV joints + new boots, & reinstalled for $95/side, + inspected the rear axles and the whole steering & undercarriage - decided that the original equipment was probably made better than the replacement stuff fm China so did the rebuild - came out great........hope that helps
