Ford Granada driveline vibeation
Hello guys, this is not really an performance ford but I hope you can point me in the right direction.
My 81 Granada 2.3 4 speed with 76.000km vibrates while driving past 50mph. I tought it was the rubber in the middle of the propshaft, checked it, had some play so I changed it. Now it's even worse, maybe because I stiffened that part up. U-joints are good. When I took the propshaft away from the car I marked it's position to be sure it would go back as it was. Where to look? https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/passion...299a691c09.jpg |
Wheel balance been checked? Could be inner CV's also
|
Have you tried swapping the wheels front to rear to see if the vibration changes?
|
Inner CVs used to get dry and require regreasing
Other than that propshaft balance weights may have come off? wheel balance/ out of shape tyres. |
Weight is still in place, tires are new and balanced. CV joints haven't been checked. Will do. Thanks.

I would start at the engine mounts and replace everything working back, these cars are so simple that it cannot take a lot to change everything, eventually you will resolve it. |
And did this just start suddenly, or after work ? Other ?
And it is definitely speed related, not engine rpm etc ? Swapping wheels or tyres would be a good first step |
Car has been sitting for about 10 years, so I don't know, tires are new but I will swap them for some wheels I have lying around to check if it makes a difderence.
