2001 Infiniti QX4 - Driveline Vibration FIXED

Post by Mark F »

Hello, drive line vibration at at 40mph and up. Had bad u-joints,front and rear shafts. Replaced u joints ,road test still has vibration. Remove front drive shaft vibration gone. Do these have problems with transfer case??? No damage on drive shafts and balance weights all there. Thanks Mark

i had one similar to this in another vehicle. if it's a cv joint for the front diff the centering ball my have worn. i've seen these look fine and when they're taken apart the ball is broken. another issue i've seen is the slide on the shaft is frozen. if it doesn't move smoothly it will cause a vibration.

Hello,just to let you know the fix on the QX4. Sent drive shaft out, was bent slightly and needed to be rebalanced and straighten.Works like a charm.... Mark
