My 1996 tercel shakes bad from 55 to 65 miles per hour. i have had the tires balanced again and again and it still vibrates. i replaced the drivers side axel after a collison at 66k and the passenger side axel at 106k after the boot ripped open. the vibration is really bad when i have my foot on the gas and it almost goes away at hiway speed but it is still there but faint. I'm thinking it's in the transmission but could it be just and driveshaft?

Hi LEITH66,

Check the driveshaft inner joints for wear due to lack of lubricants.
