driveshaft?
i'm new to this site and i need a little help. I have a 75 F100 ranger 2 wheel drive well recently when i get up to 35-40 mph it starts to vibrate and runs a little rough. I've had it for about a year now and it's always run real good. did an oil change and tune up recently. I not sure if it's the wheel bearing or the driveshaft? any advice would help. thanks:-huh

For sure it is road speed related and not engine related?
Road speed: Wheel weights Driveshaft including u-joints Bent wheel? Engine Speed: Balancer Cracked flexplate/flywheel Loose convertor if automatic Josh |
Auto or standard ?

If a two-piece driveshaft, there is a U shaped rubber center support, a center support sealed bearing.
When the bearing's grease dries out, and/or the rubber support disintigrates, the driveshaft vibrates. Ford sells these parts along with the bracket and shims as a kit. D9TZ-4800-A .. Driveshaft Center Support Kit / Available from Ford. Applications: 1961/79 F100/250, some F350's. MSRP: $96.83 // FTE sponsor PARTSGUYED.COM price: $69.72. |
To Mark: it's an auto. thanks for the tip numberdummy. And upon having to help my daughter move i noticed that the vibration happens at certain RPMs like right before 2nd and third gear, then at 40 when i accelerate

I would say the torque convertor or flexplate is to blame.

Vibrations can be tough to diagnose. As Josh pointed out, there are all sorts of things that can cause it. |
