heartless Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 all i could see was camera shaking... i sincerely doubt that a tiny bit if movement (if indeed there is any) in that steering rack is the source of your vibration. More likely to be that wobbly stub shaft you mentioned earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is definitely some movement in the rack so i am replacing it. I ended up buying a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirtokesalot Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share Posted August 20, 2021 so im calling it un fixable. at this point ive replaced everything in the front end and still have the shaking. this is including using my brand new snow tires on balanced wheels. theres nothing left to try replacing. anyone wanna buy a car with rebuilt engine and all new suspension and steering components? only down side is it will shake forever with no reason why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know man. I’ve been following along. That thing is getting me me amped up too. I’ve been there before. should have done what you said - sell it while it’s at least running which it did years ago. Now it’s just a parts car and constant reminder na-na-na-na you never figured me out. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirtokesalot Posted August 21, 2021 Author Share Posted August 21, 2021 could engine mounts or trans mounts cause a shake? i dunno what els to think of. i do have another set of engine and trans mounts around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forester2002s Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 If suddenly accelerate, can you hear a 'thump'? And if you suddenly let off the gas, is there a 'thump'? If so, it could be engine or trans mounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirtokesalot Posted November 10, 2021 Author Share Posted November 10, 2021 update its an end to the nightmare shaking. i swapped the driveshaft again for the 3rd time a couple days ago and the shake finally went away. the car drives smoother than it ever has since i got the car over 2 years ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathan909 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Mein Gott. Did you ever take any of the driveshafts to a driveline shop for balancing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
