I purchased radius links from Winners Circle. A couple of hours to install. As my other post explains I have been trying to source a drive you crazy vibration. The links allowed me to make adjustments to the axle alignment and also the angle of the diff. I eliminated some of my vibration; still have some vibration issues, I think are related to tire/rim balance. The car seems tighter and more stable, IMO a good performance upgrade.

Phil;
Does JP know you got his car?

OK, OK, just jokin'
That looks like a good fix, and you're doing a very good job.
As per your other thread, I would think you are down to tires and rims now.

I sure hope so I have spent most of all my spare time working on the vibrations. I have been off for a week and done nothing but poke at my baby
Cheers Phil
 
Phil,
This might be the dumbest idea..but have you tried removing the spacers..and see how it affects the vibration? I'm not quite sure why it would generate a vibration..people run them all the time. Just looking for 'differences' in your system. Or did you have those on before the issue started?
Just a thought..might try it before having wheels/tires balanced..

Love those radius links! Its on my "later" list of fun stuff once I get on the road..hard to buy that stuff now when I need to cover bare steel!!
 
I'm wondering if those spacers with their elongated holes stay centered when you tighten lun gunt....try running without them to see if they're the culprits.
 
I am in garage switching over to tapered roller bearings. Stand by for late afternoon update. The links make me happy sat on my stool and admired them today
Cheers
Phil
