Hello together..

since my LS1 / 4l60e swap into my 51 chevy pickup....do i have a Vibration between 65 to 80 mph...
So far i read hours for hours about pinion angle etc. etc. and tried some alignments without satisfying results...

Therefore i am thinking just to replace the sensitive U-Joints with some CV-Joints.. but so far i did not find any thread in the www to such a Replacement...

Would be great if u can give some Feedback , if an Installation of CV-Joints at a drive shaft is possible ??

Hope to hear from you soon

Thanks
Achim
