BTW, this is how it rides or drives......not how it runs.
I was referring to the rear shaft, but I'm sold on doing the fronts, as well. The vibration in the rear shaft got bad enough it felt like the clutch going out... lol.

Good point ont runs vs rides. I changed it in the body of the post, but can't change the title.
