Hi, I have a vibration at 45mph not before or after just at 45mph. It happens in all gears and does not change when you push the clutch in. I replaced all u-joints and no change, please help I don't want to start putting money into it before I figure out the problem, oh I also changed and had balanced all tires to. Thank you very much.

Where do you feel the vibration the most, in the steering or the seat?

Chances are it is in the drive line. You already checked the u-joints. Make sure the nothing is bent and if there is play where the drive shaft goes into the diff and trans.

let me know what you find.
