My reason for concern is that I am getting an oscillating vibration starting at 50 mph and it stays no matter how fast you go. I have ruled out the following causes: driveshaft, u-joints, entire rear-end, tires/rims, tranny, flywheel, pinion angles.
My thought is: if the drive shaft should be centered through the crossmember, than the engine is sitting crooked- throwing off everything behind it. Which would also add another angle into the drive-train.
I am possibly stating the obvious, but I would like to get other's opinions.
Thank you for your help! I appreciate it.
