    A drive shaft, also called a prop shaft, can show wear as a vibration that builds with road speed or as visible play in a joint. Before you replace the shaft, rule out the tires, wheels and other driveline parts, because worn joints, poor joint lubrication, an unbalanced shaft or a bent or twisted shaft can cause similar vibration.
