I've had a small vibration for a long time now with my XJ, but after leaving Mabell Saturday the vibration has gotten much worse and really feels like it's coming from the front end. Tony took this picture while we were out there and I just happen to notice the angle (bend) of my front driveshaft. I think I overextended it and probably just about had it come apart. I'm going to try to get time to take the front driveshaft out and see if that alleviates my vibration, but my guess is the splines are bent now.

call me before you start!  i'm on a 2-month vacation and looking to keep busy.  also, you can work at my place if you don't have a garage

calvynandhobbs:
I'll take you up on that. What I want to do is remove the front driveshaft and take it out for a ride to see if the vibration goes away. If it does, great because I don't have to keep testing other parts. I'll just replace the driveshaft. I really need something longer anyway. The one in it is still the stock one. We can talk about it over at your place tomorrow night.

I hope you're referring to the XJ flexing and not the driveshaft flexing. ;D
