Heavy vibration at highway speeds

Elmo187 · August 4th, 2011, 06:07 PM

When I get on the highway, I get up to 70-80mph and the car starts to vibrate heavily. Not a real serious vibration, but enough to where I cannot ignore it.

I've since had the wheels rebalanced and the tires are slightly brand new (bought the tires almost 4 months ago). I'm kind of hoping it's nothing real serious because I don't have much money right now because I am unemployed.

Haven't changed anything underneath the car. It has 47,000 miles on it.

Ya I ran into a situation like these with my first mustang and it was a bad u-joint on the axle side.
