Nate or anyone:
Where exactly is the 'Oakie' bushing? Is it inside the torque tube?

Vibration at slow pull
Thanks very much, Nate. I'll check this out and see if
anything's loose. That little gremlin is hiding in there somewhere, and
maybe I can squeeze him out with a little tightening. I appreciate the
info.

Gotta open up the ball and have a look , it'll be pretty obvious
once you have it apart in your hand .
Occasionally the small bolts holding the U-joint to the output
yoke
back out and cause this vibration , replace them if they're
loose or
mis matched .
I'd also think the Oakie bushing to be highly suspect as the #1
sign
of wear there is vibration .
Lay a wrench to the motor mounts to ensure they're tight , never
can
trust looking at them .
