Driveline Vibration Issue

[Carlwalski]

Sorry in advance if this is a re-post.


A woman ran over a mattress and decided to keep going anyway. The mattress got caught in the car's under belly and finally whipped around enough to put a tear in the gas tank Leaking gas She still managed to drive the car for 30 more miles decently, with a 60lb tangle wrapped around the driveshaft. The subsequent lack of fuel is what finally brought her vehicle to its knees. After having her car towed to her dealer's garage, She complained that the vehicle had a "shimmy" when driving it at high speeds.


This is what the dealership found..............






















Yep, she was a blonde!

have had several trucks run over mattresses over the years.
they will literally clean everything it can get a holt of, air lines, fittins, air bags, brake chambers, fuel tanks, etc. & wrap so tight its like a second layer on the driveshaft.

I wouldnt even know where to begin on a project like that. Would charge the insurance company an assload though.
