I am starting to get a vibration in the front end of my wife's 99
Galant ES 4 cyl. It only happens at highway speeds and I dont know if
it is the driveaxles or what. I ran it up on ramps last week and
checked the axles and they have a little play but barely enough to
notice. I dont know if that little play is enough to cause the
vibration or not. Thanks

Doug

Play in the inner CV causes vibration, and eventually wobble in the steering
wheel, similar to out of balance wheels. Worn tierod ends and ball joints
have the same effect.
