    Default driveline vibrations

    hey, i stuffed my tranny not long ago so on the weekend i put another tranny in and now somethin vibrates preety bad when i put my foot into it, only when its clinbing revs, i thought it was the tail shaft cause i put the same one in so i changed it to the one that was on the tranny i got which was good nic but it still vibrates i dont know where its comin from i can feel it under my feet if i put my foot flat on the floor while im drivin, i was thinking the way the driveshaft is aligned maybe somethin to do with were i got the spacers under the centre bearing or somethin i dunno any help would be good tho.
    cheers joel

    I did a new tranny 2 months ago and got a harder vibration on hard acceleration. Even sometimes not accelerating hard. Had my tail shaft looked at and it was not only out of balance but had a hairline crack in it. Maybe you could have it looked at also just encase.

    Does it do it when you are going to a big roundabout and it only drops to about 2nd then as you go around and start to accelerate it really feels bad on vibration like it's unbalanced real bad to the point you think the engine is sick, And your not even hitting the power very hard at all. Cause this happens to me i go to Airport west shopping centre, As i get off the freeway there is a large roundabout which if no cars come you can take it about 30kp/h. As i get around and start to accelerate it vibrates the whole car bad. always every single time the same place warm or just warming or hot.
    So the first place i went to was this same roundabout to see if it was all good. Got to it as was smiling big time it had gone. Today i went for some new interceptors down at holden and my whole drive was such fun without this unbalanced feeling it felt great.
    Are you in Melbourne at all close to the western suburbs? The place i went to looked at my car quoted me and i went back about 2 weeks later to have it done, No charge to looks at it well maybe everyone is the same.
