[83 Rader Leaf Spring Bushings toasted in 2months??]

If you installed the bushings unloaded (springs hanging)  and tightened everything up then put the full weight back on the springs that could have caused your problem because that would have twisted the bushings as you put weight on the springs way beyond their normal range. 

I'm thinking the same " if the gentleman tightened everything up with the vehicle wheels off the floor " that would cause the bushings to twist way past there travel. 

[Drive line vibration]

Hey guys I'm still looking for answers to why I'm having driveshaft vibration. 

I had a one piece shaft made , and installed a new extension housing bushing . The yoke going into the housing has some up and down play . Is that normal with the 3 speed automatic transmission ?

And why did toyota use the two piece shaft in the wagons ? Any help would be appreciated..

[1983 Toyota Corolla wagon automatic transmission extension housing bushing replacement]

I have a 83 Toyota Corolla wagon with a 3 speed Auto transmission that's having driveshaft vibration problems .

I've replaced the extension housing bushing and seal but it didn't solve the problem. 

After installing the new bushing the driveshaft yoke still had too much back and forth play when I inserted into the housing ...

Any help would be appreciated ?
