    Default Vibration... Now a uni issue.

    Gday guys,

    I've got a '79 te72 t18 that is 100% stock. I have developed a severe vibration. I think its in the drivetrain as there is no vibration through the steering wheel. Another symptom is that it eases if I throttle on slightly, taking up freeplay I guess you could say. It also seems to get better and pretty much go away over about 40kph and its there regardless of being in or out of gear.

    So I jumped under the car to check it out and the center bearing had a crapload of play in it. I have replaced that and it has made no difference to the vibration at all.

    The gearbox, tailshaft and diff all seem to spin normally and everything 'looks' normal.

    Any ideas as I'm lost as to where to look now?

    Cheers
