Universals shouldn't have any noticable play in them. And a vibration is usually the first sign of failure :wink:

Uni's for the driveshafts are really cheap new and easy to fit also.

Cant think of anywhere in diff or drive shafts that are ball bearing.

Only real place they can come from is CV joints.

Have you checked CV's

hey year i checked them and one is buggerd and alot of play in the axle and the other one has a split boot grease everywhere haha was the first time i took this truck out to and she crapped out .. there is no viabrating yet .. so it could possibly just be the universal ??
