I was thinking that the unmatched shocks might be causing the vibration.
Another question: How old are the rubber mounts; engine, transmission,
differential? Many vibrations can occur that we aren't aware of if the

the only reason to replace them in pairs is the idea that if one goes, the

Ummm, I can't see how this could be true. The speedo drive is in the
transmission isn't it? The transmission doesn't care if both wheels are
spinning or just one, it takes the same number of driveshaft revolutions either
way.

I get it now and retract my previous question. I had thought the original post
said that the speedo would have to read 160 to hit 80mph rotational speed. I
re-read and realize it says no such thing.

Its not abuse its differing experience. Remember I keep saying every time I've
dealt with AutohausAZ its been a cluster. I ordered a radiator for my 190D,

If the accumulators have gone flat the suspension cannot move, and the

One good shock and one worn out one can sometimes cause serious wheel
tramp, especially in solid axles (which are subject to all sorts of
ills independent suspension are not). If one has failed prematurely,
though, and the other is working well, you can replace them

Yes, exceedingly overdamped. Damped like replacing the springs with
a solid steel bar. The spheres are nitrogen-filled, they fail when all
the nitrogen has leaked out and they're full of
The self-leveling rear shock is just a hydraulic cylinder and the
damping comes from the restriction in the plumbing to the sphere.

They have wear mechanisms, but they
Its not slander to say that when ordering a Bilstein shock from you or from AZ

Aviation is a small world, when you count the players, not the passengers.
Something less than .03% of the population of USA hold pilots licenses, far
