    Tires are the coopers and have very good tread, wheel bearings were repacked and front end checked out ok. its more of a vibration noise that gets louder when I hit 50 in the M1008. Tires not new , but not rotted. May be I will have the tire shop take a look.

    VIN number

    I noticed on my M1008 the dash Vin is off by a couple of numbers compaired to the door vin plate. looks like GL only looks at the door plate when recording the vin. for the sales. Which vin is the correct one, door plate, or dash? I want to apply to GL for my SF97 and would like to be correct.

    Bent drive shaft

    Got my M1008 home today and realized the vibration is from a bent drive shaft. How hard are they to replace? Are used ones expensive and hard to find? What can I expect to pay for a used shaft? Can you drive short distances with a bent shaft?
