hey all,

i have a very weird shudder through my steering wheel at about 55-65mph or so. I am stumped.......checked all four wheels and tires, no problems....both cv shafts are new.....no problems with brakes dragging or anything......????

some help please!

thanks

 

So you have checked the balance of the wheels? If it just happened when you changed your axles it could be a bad inner joint.

 

all the joints are good........i just replaced the tie rod ends recently....and it had done this to some extent since i bought it last june. i have been told two possibilities.......bad notor/trans mount( have been told tranny mount more than once) and possibly balance shaft belt failure.....but that doesnt sound right. it is only between 55-65 or so on throttle....it pretty much fades away off throttle.....no other vibrations at any other speed or rpm range.....actually now that i think of it, it seens mostly in 5th gear at that speed

thanks

 

I had a terrible vibrating problem at > 60mph on an old car I bought recently. It went away after balancing the tires. The vibration was pretty impressive, I was surprised it could be caused by something trivial like balance.
