rear vibration

I had the u-joints replaced balanced driveshaft, properly balanced tires and still get a vibration from the rear sounds like its being transfered from the diff. to the body of the vehicle. Any suggestions would be appreciated thanks

Did you get all the drive line bolts back in. I bought a car that had alot of vibration in the rear , then found that one of the driveline bolts was missing. Put it in ,quick fix.

I'm sure they're all in since he balanced the driveshaft.

See, I've got the same problem. What I haven't been able to comfirm on mine is...............The FSM Page L3 (driveshaft section) Denotes a "Balance washer" on the back of the diferential yoke that the DS bolts to. I didn't see anything like that when I was doing my U-joints. I gotta get the car up on stands and re-inspect that area to see if I have any of those.

Stock rims all bolts in and tight vibration stays the same (with the exception of speed variance) with clutch depressed and engine allowed to idle at highway speed. acel and decel stays the same went under car cv shafts are tight although they move back and forth on the splines on the diff and wheel bearings are tight.I'm glad to see a site for rx-7s
