    Bad Vibration on Deceleration

    The driver is telling me that our car has a pretty bad vibration when letting off the gas for a caution or at the flag. The car is a 6 year old Shaw that seems to be working pretty good, other than that. We've replaced the top shock, replaced the pull bar bushings, have the pinion angle at only 6 1/2 degrees. The u joints seem to be fine, so we didn't replace them. Any suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.

        If it is a standard slip yoke transmission. You may try putting a new bushing and seal in it. Also how much yoke is in the transmission?
        I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.

          Drive yoke, driveshaft joints, pinion bearings is what I would start with.

            what about tightening up deceleration bushing on pullbar, or replacing it with a harder one?

              Thanks for all of your replies to this. Well, we changed both u-joints in the driveshaft, put a new bushing in the Brinn tranny, and still had the problem. We then changed the complete driveshaft and the problem went away. Again, thanks for the help.
