Has anyone considered replacing the bushings that support the transmission and front differential / VC. If these bushings wear out over time they might affect the alignment of the running gear or deformed under specific load conditions resulting in a vibration of the drive shaft. Let me know this makes any sense or anyone has the success in correcting this type of vibration. I haven't 86 syncro that vibrates at around 50 60 but goes away above 60 miles an hour. I've not yet done anything to try to resolve this problem.
