hey all. I have a 84 chevy g20 camper van. it vbrates real bad from 30mph to about 55, its def. coming from the drivline. i have checked the ujoints and they look fine. the carrier bearing has a little movement but not allot. I can tell there is some read drivline wobble from just behind the carrier bearing. any thoughts?

I have a 2 pc drive shaft also & the carrier bearing needs to be tight.

Drive shaft unbalanced ?

All u-joints LOOK fine .... When was the last time you changed them ?



When you change gears does it go CLUN CLUNK....that is a sign of a bad u-joint.

It / they may still be the culprit ... how long has the veh been sitting ?

How old are the tires, bad tires will give a thumping sound, similar to a bad u-joint, or a brake could be holding up.
