Has a MMR 900 trans and MMR RBT700 clutch with Strange 31 spline axles and 4.56 gears. I believe it has an aftermarket driveshaft as well. Speedometer is off but around 75MPH there is a vibration. Now my pinion seal is gone and it's leaking gear oil. I was going to take the driveshaft out and get it balanced unless y'all have a better idea! Any suggestions are welcome!
