Vibrations on 2 gear at low rpm's ????? Where's all the knowledgeable members!!!!! - SRT Forums

srtfreak69 · 10-27-2009, 05:40 PM

Replaced my clutch with a ACT dn4-hdss with light flywheel and my passenger axle from napa. the brand of the axle is called dorset not sure if any one here have used them. now when im at low rpm's i get vibration that are bothering the hell out of me since never really have that before the clutch and axle install. when i installed the axle i just popped the old one with the half shat as in one piece than once it was out i separated them and installed the new one. my question is was i supposed to look at the drivers side one or do a procedure that had to do with the drivers side???? or did i do it correctly and just install it with no additional procedure?? Did i get a defective one??? if any one has this issue before and solve it please give me your input or your .02 cents. any help would be appreciated.......

Kick the fat ass bitches you have in the car out and it won't bottom out anymore which will get rid of the vibration.....

LOL!!!!

I am just messing with you bro consider it a free bump.

Any idea on where the vibration is coming from?

Check your lug nuts to make sure they are tight. Also make sure your wheel bearing is still good. Those are 2 things that will give a vibration besides just the axle. Normally the axle will vibrate only when you are accelerating try rolling down a hill with the car in neutral and see if it still shakes.

I know man, i got a pretty good sense of humor

thanks for the bump.

Ya when i was in the highway i would accelerate to about 80 mph and put it in neutral and no vibrations its only on acceleration. My lug nuts are pretty tight as well. what will be a good test to see if my bearings are ok other than noise?? thanks for the input

If it's only on accel I would say it's you axle. I had that problem before. Use the search button to find out a way to test wheel bearings but if it's only on accel then I don't think that would be it.

So i have a defective axel??? i still have the receipt for it. i see alot of people only going towards mopar ones but im going to contact gator axles and see if the can rebuild mine. heard good things from them and they are located here in orlando. i saw on the tranny before i installed the axle like a blue paint marks i dunno if that indicate some sort of aligned to the drivers side that y i was asking if there was a certain procedure of it just was remove and replace. i appreciated your help man thanks. really dought is my wheel bearing too but i gotta rule it out.
