driveshaft vibe?
hey all. trucks an 02 Ram 1500 5.9. so i have a shimmy over 100km/h/55 mp/h. it literally feels like unbalanced tires. had my old tires balanced, then i replaced them with a new set. no dice. nothing fixed. so heres what i think. it is constant over 100, in 2wd. however in 4wd the vibe is not present. i'm thinking its a driveshaft up front. i crawled under and i can feel a lot of slop in teh driveshaft and it looks like the rear CV joint has some play in it. i wanna pull the shaft and take it in to a drive line shop to get it tested. but asides from that, any ideas?
so question. i am tryin to pull this damn driveshaft but i can't get'r out. i removed the front flange but it didn't budge. i wanna hit it with a damn hammer next (on flange/ujoint) any ideas though?

My 03 did the same thing.
I didn’t think much of it, let it go and my rear universal locked up, and the bolts for pinion flange were really loose. Took out pinion seal. So I suggest getting it looked at soon.
