Re: Vibration on Acceleration

[Dan McCormack <mcwheels@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually I've found that a bad front U-joint can cause a vibration in the 
steering wheel under acceleration. I imagine a bad ball and trunion could do 
the same. And yes a difference between pinion angle of the rear end and 
angle of the tranny can also cause the same vibration.

Is it only under acceleration? If so, one of the things to check is
u-joints. A vibration under acceleration is a main symptom, but that
doesn't explain you feeling it in the steering wheel though.
