Default Vibration

Hey there I'm just after some clarification I had the car lowered last weekend by about 30mm and I now have a vibration under acceleration, from what I understand this means I need the drive shaft spacer?

Cheers Richard

I had a the same problem a few weeks back but I haven't lowered the car. Turned out it was ceased driveshaft cv cups or something like that.

It's your inner cv cups/buckets most likely. The half shaft spacers will sort it at least temporarily, but they will need swapping over at some point.

Get the split ones and you can diy in around an hour.

+1 for the spacers.

Split ones are a cinch to fit, as andy2000 will testify
