Yes I do. I also can hear a crack crack on and off the gas with the stereo
off. The wierd part is this shimmy feels like its engine related? but she
is purring like a kitten at idle no lope(throws out my missing cylinder
idea).
When I had the u-joints done this past summer, I had him change the diff
fluids to and hereported nothing wierd with the rear end and the front end
was slightly frothy(likely) from the water crossing) but no shavings or gunk
in either.
