Where are you feeling the shake?Steering wheel/cab=tires Seat/floor=driveline or drive train mounts
To see if it is engine/transmission related and not speed related, you can check the engine and transmission while parked, by putting the transfer case in neutral. This still allow you to shift through the gears like you are driving it, without having to deal with road or driveline vibrations.Might also try to keep track of the speed the vibes start and stop at in 2nd and 3rd. Do they get worse the faster you go?
Sound's like it is the driveline or a bearing issue in the rear axle. If you can put the rear up on a jack, and spin the tires, and see what you hear/see. Also, see what amount of play you have in the driveline, shouldn't be any up or down movement, and 9nly slight when turning it, about an 1/8".Before the vibes started, had you noticed a ting sound, like a wrench smacking a pipe, when taking off, backing up. The sound is an early warning that the u-joints are starting to go.
Basically, just crawl under there and see how much play there is in the driveline. If any up-dow, side-to-side, means they need to be replaced. The only movement should be when twisting it, and that amount should be slight, as it is just the slack in the trans gear.
It’s the rear driveshaft u-joint. It’s getting worse so I need to take care of this soon. Anyone have any recommendations on where and what to buy?
Matsuba u joints.
I prefer Toyota and am trying to figure out which part number of the three above I should be looking for. I think it is 0437160070, but I want to be sure
Not sure what site you were on, but you can get them for $57 each through this dealer's site, with currently free shipping with orders over $75.https://parts.rosevilletoyota.com/p/Toyota_1982_Truck-DLX-24L-MT/Universal-Joint-Front--Rear/62992806/0437160070.htmlIf it were me, I would just go with a set of Dana u-joints(Rockauto has them for $18), or what Marlin sells if they will fit your '82, the site states '84-'95, it isn't one of those parts that needs Toyota level quality or fit and finish, like some other parts.From what you posted, this should be the one you need.
Holy smokes... I paid 300 and 350 for driveshafts.. new from a reputable company
