^well im sure its still works, the long and multiple sets of tire marks at the stop sign right before my house proves it

Might have looked ok the day it was installed then moved under power the first run..gaboonviper85;1067342 said:Well... Ij can you find the pic I posted of what a fubar driveshaft looks like cause again I'm on my iPhone...
Adam...I saw this driveshaft before you installed it...your driveshaft is fine!
But this is what...I...think. The diff has major backlash (aka play)...the pinion gear and ring gear are worn out of spec....what this will do is.......while you accelerate at a decent rate and have a nice pull it doesn't jerk...BUT once you let off the gas it jerks and throws you forward...am I right?? This is a common problem in all old cars that have been beat to hell....basically your driveshaft acts like a torsion bar cause there is slop in the diff..
Adam.....put the trans in neutral and put the parking brake on....twist the driveshat in one direction then twist it in the other and how much twist could you get before it stopes?

Can't see how backlash will make vibration on overrun that's usually either an out of phase shaft or damaged Uni joints.
IJ.;1067799 said:If it were backlash he'd get a clunk as it came onto the back of the teeth then the load would hold it there until he accelerated again.
(Diffs usually just whine badly)
Can't think of ANYTHING in the trans that would cause what he describes.
Out of phase shaft will do it as it winds up under overrun then snaps back and forth.
A trashed Uni will do the same.

Can't diagnose a problem without ALL the info..

Like the TPS being out of adjustment and not goint to fully closed throttle...
