Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    Violent front end shaking

    ok so tonight on my way home from the city my front end decides it wants to start shaking and actually bouncing violently under acceleration only... light or soft it really doesn't matter.
    so i'm thinking it's either my wheel bearing or my drive shaft. my cv boot has a tear in it i noticed when i got home and looked under the car.
    anyone have any ideas?

    first off I would jack up the car, and reef on everything to see if anything is completely whacky, and then try rotating your tires, this will rule out if you have a tire/balance issue there.

        well it could have a new tire defect, or the weights moved, or anythng. look im just giving you suggestions, to assume that its not the tires by saying they are brand new,well you could be throwing money at your car.

            sounds like an axle problem to me.

              what makes me wonder is that this problem started after you got new tires...anyway have a look around and yank on the cvs, if its as bad a vibration as u make it sound,should be easy to spot

                    have your.... half shafts been replaced yet? yes, possibly axle problems perhapsably.

                    it's either...
                    -tires / wheels
                    -ball joints (upper, lower, steering arms thingies, any shot bushings)
                    -half shafts
                    -lugs nuts loose (oh noes! = new wheel)
                    -mythical creatures in your drivetrain somewhere (gremlins, unicorns, etc... )

                      well for those interested, turns out it was the drive axle. picked one up and had the old one out and new one in, in 3 hrs. not bad for never having done one before.
                      thanks to those that gave suggestions.
