mystery vibration
#18
I had a similar cyclic vibration like you're describing on my sedan. My lower control arm bushings were shot and the arm was pushed forward. Replaced those as well as compression rod and lower shock mount bushings with energy suspension polyurethane ones, rotated and balanced the tires. No more vibration and much better steering feel.
Probably not this but check for a bent rim as well, sometimes this can appear as a vibration at higher speed.

OK guys let me set something straight. The drive shaft will spin in Neutral causing the rear wheels to spin when they are lifted off the ground. This is the force on the clutch when in neutral/disengaged. However, when the rear wheels are on the ground, the car is too heavy causing the drive shaft to stop (not enough force on the clutch). Go ahead, give it a try...I thought my car was messed up when I saw it

after reading the thread and all the back and forth or how a driveshaft works I began to forget the purpose.....by forgetting what the OP had asked in the first place lol

if the car is in neutral how can u even assume the drive shaft would spin.

Even though this thread is way off topic, I only posted the previous information because you said the drive shaft is stopped...I was just being technical. Check out these threads:
