[6pack] STRANGE VIBRATION (again)

[COLIN THOM]

Sloane...one more thought: 50-ish is when wheel balance comes into play. Check to see if you've lost a big balance weight from one of your rear wheels.

Hi Guys, 

This summer the Six has developed a strange vibration. I'll try to describe. 


Seems to come and go, mostly around 50-ish mph. Feel it in the seat-of-pants. Doesn't really feel like a U-joint but I'm not sure. Rear hubs were rebuilt a couple years ago. Rear axle U-joints were replaced with hub rebuild, but drive shaft U-joints haven't been done. Seems like one of the drive shaft U-joints may have been done years before but can't remember. Front end was rebuilt about 5 years ago, not sure if front bearings were done then, think so. Tires are near end-of-life. Need to be replaced due to age and tread is thin but just haven't done it yet. No accompanying noise, just a new strange tingle in the butt. (haha) 


Any ideas?
