Did the truck have the vibration prior to the new pumpkin installation? I would triple check all u-joint and for good measure pull the driveshaft out again and make sure all joints are in between the tangs etc. Also i dont know much about Ford trucks but my 66 chevy truck has a 2 piece driveshaft and the counter weights have to be in sinc with each other or it will vibrate.
: Just had to let everyone know that my wife had her baby Tuesday. He's 8 pounds, 6 ounces and 22 inches long!! We brought him home today! This is our first baby too. :)
: Sorry to bring up something else, but I have an '82 F-150. 302/4 Spd.
: This truck has a new rear end and u-joints. But it has a bad vibration when it hits about 40-45 mph. Its has good tires. It also gets worse if I push in the clutch and almost goes away when I accelerate. I didn't replace axle bearings, I just put in the "pumpkin". I need this truck on the road A.S.A.P. This is going to be my main transportation for a while. Any ideas or suggestions I would appreciate greatly!!!
