This thread took on a life of it's own under a different title. So why can't I delete this thread?
Well in what is most likely gonna be a ongoing line of questions on my "new to me" truck, i;ve already discovered the cause of the vibration the the dealer said was "tires". Looks like my front drive shaft is caput! The universal joints are worn to the point of near catastrophie. So I need just a little advice here, I've got a local shop(not a dealer) that does driveline work. But the question is -
Do I have to replace the whole shaft?
Just have the u-joints replaced?
Rough guess's on cost
