When I drive my explorer I always have vibration that at certain speeds gets worse or better. When the gas peddle is backed off on at say 50 it gets bad u feel the shaking thew out the suv. It feels like the drive axle I just replaced the upper ball joints on both sides. I was told theres a bearing or seal of some sort on the part that slides into the tranny. Do u have any clue to if theres something that needs to be replaced inside the tranny and does it require to take the tranny out or can it be done as is
