Default '88 80 vibrates while driving

My 88 80 vibrates when driving down the road. It's worse sometimes more than others and I noticed at certain speeds it changes. I've had the tires rotated and balanced and the alignment done but it only seemed to make it a little better for a short amount of time. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and how they solved it. I'm also looking for a temperature gauge for the same car and if anyone has a service manual that they are willing to sell, I would gladly buy it. I really don't want to pay full price for one if I can get one from someone. Thanks.

Default Do you "curb check" sometimes??....

..My wife bent a rim on our '91 90 with all of her "curb checks"!! I just put the bent rim on back and then the vibration went away...then I went out and bought all new wheels for it!!!

Hope this helps!!!

Default Re: '88 80 vibrates while driving

Mine vibrated at about 60MPH. Above or below that it would be okay. It turned out to be the tires. Something about a slipped belt in one of them. I got new tires and the problem went away.
