Just got back from playing volleyball in an MPVA event in Traverse City MI. Drove 75mph the whole way. Upon return to town I noticed that there was a pronouced low speed vibration just like going over the wake up grooves on the side of the road. At medium speeds the vibration was higher pitched and at 65 mph it seemed to disappear although I thought I heard some other nasty noises. I checked the drivesaft and the U joints seem solid with no play. I suspect a rear wheel bearing but I figured someone on the list has already experienced this prob. Any Ideas?
