I took the tailshaft builder in the car after the test drive and he says its perfect and that its not a vibration. He said its just harsh because the rear dosent use a CV anymore as its now a full uni to the diff. When you cruise at any speed its fine. Is this normal?Was built by melbourne driveshafts, same people who done karmens purple BA Edited 18/10/12 04:57 AM by tonyv Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82449-strengthened-tailshaft-vibration/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 18/10/12 08:07 AM Share Posted 18/10/12 08:07 AM Not sure where you are located there Tony but Essendon Ford do tailshaft balancing on the car. That would be my first port of call I too have had my tailshaft done in the last week but thankfully don't have any problems with vibration.Jack 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82449-strengthened-tailshaft-vibration/#findComment-1311040 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 18/10/12 08:54 AM Share Posted 18/10/12 08:54 AM That's right, proper support for the diff and cradle is required. That means the rear bush but also the ones on either side too.Jack 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82449-strengthened-tailshaft-vibration/#findComment-1311061 Share on other sites More sharing options...
