    A worn drive shaft can show up as vibration that grows with speed, a clunk when you shift or accelerate, or grease flung from a joint. Before replacing it, look the tires over for uneven wear with the engine off, because wheel balance and worn mounts can cause similar vibration; a shop can inspect the shaft on a lift. If the shaft is at fault, this assembly replaces it.
