Could This Be the Vibration Problem(s)??

Problem #1: When I drive the car at around 30mph, the car bounce up and down. It goes away at around 35 mph or so. Problem #2: starting at 70mph on the highway, I get this front end vibration.

I assumed that whatever was causing one problem was also causing the other. So I jacked up the car and looked underneath, starting at the back, and noticed that one of the brand new Koni inserts appears to be leaking. I say this because the bolt at the bottom of the strut was wet and its not water. So I figure thats probably causing the bouncing up and down.

I then looked at the front suspension, and found that both front axles have a tiny amount of play where they go into the transmission, and also at the inner cv joints. Not much, but enough where I could slightly shake the axles at the transmission, and also at the inner cv joints. I figure this is causing front vibration at high speed.

Any thoughts, that none, one or both of the about sound right before I start the repairs? My plan is to reinstall both original rear struts, and to order the front axles from Advance Auto and install them.

Thanks.

Larry
