Does anyone else have an aluminum drive shaft that is unbalanced ? I recently bought a 2001 flareside Triton 4.6 2 wheel drive and there was a vibration. Thinking it was tires I purchased a new set but the problem persisted. I have had the source traced to the drive shaft being warped. Will this happen again and under what circumstances do you think it has occured? Thanks.


Supercab...sorry about that.

 

Reg cab or Super?

 

Check my post above. I will just be traveling down the and this vibration will start out of (feels like a wheel is out of balance). I have not had the driveshaft checked yet. Did your driveshaft throw a weight or did it warp?? It seems as though certain conditions must exist to cause the vibration. I experience this a couple times a week. Do you know the cause of this issue in your case and what to look for?

Thanks,

Herf
