strange vibration 200 1977

Greetings all-

I have a wierd vibration that I can't track down. It only occurs when I am moving, reaching about 3 on the tach. My wife tells me that she can feel it somewhere below her seat, and I can't feel it below the drivers side but I can definitely hear it. It is a deep sound, and changes when I shift. I checked and doubled check the exhaust, and everything is tight. Any ideas?


Thanks in advance-

Joe H.C.

Don't like to make expensive guesses without good diagnosis, but my wife's car hs similar situation. I will remove the drive shaft and if U-joints are OK, will replace the centre bearing cushion. I think they get soft even though they look OK???

Hmmm . . that doesn't sound good. I am a newbie, and I am hoping tha someone can give me the short answer of what this means.

Thanks-
