vibration at 70+, it's a vibrator! Options

[I Love Chad]

question for you guys. i've got a 94 celica gt, auto, w/o ABS. driving aroung the city, there are no noises except for an occasional knock from the drivers side. i did pull the driver's side wheel off and clamp holding the CV boot on was loose, so i tightened it using the Toyota clamp tool. granted i know i had lost a lot of grease already, so i don't drive it much, i drive my b/f's car.

my question is, could this vibration, which is speed sensitive be the driver's side CV? we are going to head out to the pick-n-pull today to grab some 5th gen mirrors, a new intake boot, and a driver's side axle as i did have to drive 1500 miles from boston to West Palm Beach with this problem. so it is probably pretty screwed up right now.

i've read the best way to get the axle out is to pull like a mofo, a pry-bar, tire-iron, etc. and i already have a DIY for putting it back in. but any other tips would be appreciated. also, are there any axles from other models that wold fit the same? like a camry, corolla, MR2? thanks in advance.

I'm having the same problem. Vibration under load. If going over 50mph, giving throtle I get a bad vibration in the front end. I had both front axle assembles replace due to bad CV joints a year ago. Had the tires balanced two weeks ago. Had the "cracked" rear motor mount replaced last week and it is still doing it. It happens on the expressway going up hill. It is a 94 Celica GT, automatic. I shifted into nuetral the other day while it was vibrating at 65mph and it immediatly went away. Put it back in Drive, give it gas and it starts vibrating again. This car used to run as smooth as silk and still does in neutral! I'm starting to think it is front wheel bearings? If my mechanic gets it fixed I'll let you know what the problem was.
