Tranny vibration

I have a 92 Bronco with a 351, when I have the accelerator barely pressed down just to mantain speed my transmission will vibrate, if I let off the accelerator or accelerate more it goes away. any thougts on a possible problem.

Bad U-joints or driveshaft out of balance would be my first logical guess.

Also, have you lifted your Bronco or changed any suspension components recently? Your pinion angle could be off.

I doubt it's your transmission....

Just my experience,
Mike

no it is not lifted, just bought it but it does not look like any suspension or driveline components have been changed.

Pull the driveshaft and drop it off at a driveline service place. Have it balanced, and have new u-joints put on.

I bet your problem goes away.


Good Luck
Mike
