Yesterday I posted my drivetrain problem symptoms and last night I really paid close attention to whats going on and I think my description was poor so I'll try again. I'm going to describe it as more of a harmonic hummm than a vibration. It starts at about 39mph and gets progressivley louder untill about 44mph where it subsides untill about 54mph and gets progressively louder untill about 58mph. This noise also stops if I let of the gas and starts as soon as I get back on the gas thats why I think it's drivetrain (driveshaft u-joints???) In case you didn't read my original thread I didn't notice this problem untill after my suspension work = Eibach pro kit springs,
Bilstein shocks and struts, Steeda aluminum upper and lower rear control arms
ball joints and bump steer kit, offset rack and pinion bushings and Maximum
motorsports cc plates installed 2 weeks ago with professional front end alignment done after install. Drivetrain upgrades FRPP 3.73 gears and Aluminum d/s no harmonic noise after install about 10 months ago
I hope this helps

Again any help would be appreciated this noise is starting get old

p.s. it's not exhaust related

arms...

It could be those control arms. They apply more pressure to the ground causing a bit more noise.
JUst a thought...

It's more than just a little more road noise wich I expected. But who knows?


Anyone else with rear control arms upper & lower= Steeda aluminum (street strip road race) with any problems as discribed
