Driveline vibration after lubing?

[Noshirtganshirt]

Just the other day noticed a vibration at 60-65mph. Definitely the driveshafts because it wasn't doing it before the greasing. Anyone ever experience this?

I'm thinking maybe the u joints are my next job, being as they are probably original.

I'm thinking it's just a coincidence that that you're getting a vibration after greasing the u-joints. But, there is one theory I'm thinking is a slim possibility. How much grease did you shoot into the slip yoke? Did you pump it until you saw the shaft expanding or did you just pump a few times and call it good? Maybe excess grease in the slip yoke is causing the driveshaft to be imbalanced. Total shot in the dark.

Use the right grease? http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/97006-drive-prop-shaft-greasing-guide.html


I'd stick to "3 pumps max" on the yoke too. Luck. :cowboy:
