Thanks all,

I've been on the same tyres and wheels for years, so I think I'm heading into bearing territory again. Thankfully it looks like a refurbished torque tube might not be too difficult to get hold of.

I'll let you all know what it ended up being when we find out in case anyone else ends up with the same issue.

Cheers

Has anyone actually gotten to the bottom of these vibration issues? I too have vibration between 75 and 80MPH that is very evident in the shifter. I have two sets of wheels/tires and the vibration appears at the same speed range with either set mounted. I have new Engine mounts and CV shafts in the rear.

It is very frustrating!
Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Justin

Did anyone ever solve their problem? I have a similar problem where I have viration between 55-65. I have tried two sets of wheels/tires without change. I have new axles and wheel bearings and shocks.

New trans mount and the vibration remains. Very frustrating. Wondering if the bearings in the torque tube are worn??? Has anyone had to change them?
