[DeTomaso] High Load shake

[Mike Becker]

I had similar symptoms once, turned out to be the u-joints.  Just give
the half shafts a jiggle.  You'll know right away if that's the problem.

I have a considerable shake under high acceleration.  It seems to be
worse from 0 to 80 MPH but over that it smooths out.  The dash and
steering wheel have a vertical vibration, no steering shimmy or force
vector change.  I was thinking it is either my half shafts or the clutch
slipping.  I have around 450 hp at flywheel, center force dual friction
clutch and a long throw slave.  The alignment is good and I have rebuilt
the entire suspension system with the addition of kinesis wheels with
the fat tires.  Any ideas??
  Thanks
