Final Drive Has Play
So the final drive output shaft (passenger side) has some serious play in it causing a nasty vibration under load. Is there a bearing or bushing that could possibly be replaced to fix this issue or do I need to have the transmission rebuilt? Thanks in advance

Hi One,
When you say "Final Drive" How did you check that! It could be the final drive in the trans but i don't know how you would check it without pulling you trans and taking it apart. More than likely its your Drive axle. Your Final drive would cause problems on both sides of your car. And your trans would quickly fall apart. you might also be leaking large amounts of trans fluid. There are also other parts that could cause your problem. Axle, Tie Rods, Ball Joints, Flat spot in rim or tire, Hub Bearing, Sway Bar Bushings, Bubble in Tire. So we are going to need more info on what and how you checked it in order to give you good advice! |
I second what JC said as well :thumbsup:

If the bearing in the inner CV joint are bad you will have that play. And you could have a leak were the trans fluid lines go into the trans cooler. Pull and check your axle, and look to see if you have trans fluid all over your lower control Arm.

Thanks guys! It was in fact the CV shaft, at first I didn't think so because of the way it moved around. I also have never seen the inner joint wear out like that. So that was definitely a learning experience for me. Thanks again!
