Is this the prop shaft bearing??
Hello guys,
I took my car to an axle rebuilt shop I trust to have them look at my propeller shaft to figure out why my car sometimes vibrates when I am accelerating and then let of the gas and accelerate again. They said this is the culprit:
They said they can rebuilt it if I find the rubber bearing (?).
Is this the part that commonly makes these cars vibrate like mine?
Thanks!

Spike, yes, that is the infamous prop shaft bearing that everyone talks about. I would say to first grease the bearing and see what you have at that point. Then determine if you need to replace the bearing at that point. Normally if you catch the vibration early, a little bit of grease will get things back to 100%.
