Re: "U" joints??
U joints are replaceable but difficult to keep from vibrating.
Its also difficult to find a shop that will balance the shaft as well.

Re: "U" joints??
Ok, opinions here, my rear driveline is binding with the accompanying torque shudder and freeway vibration.
Should I A). Put up with it until I can afford a "new" one, or B). Put in the FWD fuse for now, even though my driving style isnt exactly "gentle". I dont wanna blow my diff but the torque shudder is irritating. Thoughts?
