Default RE: Weird Rear Vibration When Accelerating. Help!

Well drove it to school and back today. Its shaking as bad as it was yesterday. Sea foam made the engine run smoother in idle, but it still shakes when accelerating.

A friend of mine said that he had a similar problem on his mustang and that aligning and balancing the wheels fixed the problem. Could that be it? I am almost sure now its either my drive-shaft, my differential, or my actual wheels.

Yea, so I sea foamed my engine - through the fuel, through the vacuum line, and into the oil. Had my wheels alligned. Had my shocks and breaks checked out. And the vibration is still there, and even seems to be getting worse. Now I am feeling it at speeds over 60mph even when not touching the throttle. Ughhhh [:@]

First off, its not wheel hop, wheel hop is when instead of the wheels spinning on the pavement, the rearend actually bounces up and down. When you get wheel hop, you know it. The spare tire? Doubt it. I can almost bet you its your trans mount or an engine mount. The Drivers side mount is a comon mount that likes to break. So, if you have no SES light on, figure it on being a suspention problem. If its not your brakes, shocks, or tires, its has to be something broken in your mounting system of your drive train. So, check your engine mounts, drivers side is $9.99 @autozone. The trans mount is slightly a little more. You wont find the passenger side, the rarely break.
