it seems that my car starts to rumble at 40 mph, and stop at 50 mph...so it seems that the drive shaft is causing this problem, i had couple of mechanic checked it and one said that it could be that something is loose. And i was wondering where are teh bolts or screws for the drive shaft... if i recall there are eight bolts/screws for the drive shaft... can anyone tell me where they are, or have a print out of where they are located

Thanks

someone on S2ki stated that it's the CV joint and it's gone? what does he means by that... and if that is the problem.. what is needed to fix it?

 

6 on the tranny's output flange, 6 on the diff flange, 12 total. I don't get how it would make your car shake, unless you're missing a couple bolts and it threw the balance off.

 

if your car is shaking inbetween 40 - 50 mph, check your wheel weights, maybe the tires need to be re balanced

 

i had my tires pressure checked as well, and they're all the same now, and im thinking it's the drive shaft because of how it shake only around 40-50 only, but when im in the 47 i let off the gas it stops shaking so it seems that when i step on the gas it starts to shake. Im thinking it's the drive shaft.

Loosen bolts could cause it to shake i think, and missing bolt is a !
