I was wondering how many people that have unsolved
vibration problems have polyurethane control arm bushings. I have checked everything.The only thing I can not rule out is that the poly bushings are transmitting the differial vibrations to the body.
I have checked the vibration out with the drums and wheels removed. Had a new driveshaft made and balanced twice. Changed the pinion angle up and down half a dozen times. Nothing makes much of a difference except removing the driveshaft. Then all is well. The axles run true and have no wobble in them at all. I am just wondering about the bushings being much harder the the stock rubber ones.

Very easily could be the bushings. The more dense the material, the easier the path for a vibration to follow.
