Drive/Propeller Shaft: Testing and Inspection
Propeller Shaft
PROPELLER SHAFT
PROPELLER SHAFT VIBRATION
Out-of-round tires or wheels that are out of balance, will cause a low frequency vibration. Driveline vibration can also be caused by loose or damaged
engine mounts. Propeller shaft vibration increases with vehicle speed. A vibration that occurs at a specific speed range, is not usually caused by an out
of balance propeller shaft. Defective universal joints or an incorrect propeller shaft angle are usually the cause of such a vibration.
