help with driving vibration in my cobra

SNKLEEN · December 25th, 2007, 05:22 PM

ok, i asked over on SVTP and a lot of guys gave me some different possibilities of what the problem could be, but i thought i'd ask here too

i have an 01 cobra, and i get this annoying vibration that shakes the car very slightly. it starts around 50mph, then gets a lot worse up towards 80. at first i thought it was the tire balancing, but i've had them rebalanced 2 times. no change

i had the driveshaft rotated 180 degrees, because that worked for my buddy's 01. didnt work for me.

im just about to replace the ds with an aluminum one. think that might fix the problem?

any help is appreciated, thanks

check the u-joints first. after that, take the d/s and have the balance checked. if not them then the flywheel. the way it sounds to me is like the d/s.
