Vibrations

I found a 1990 civic wagon 4wd, 6-speed. i figured i'd end up buying it because it was the least expensive thing with 4wd. turned out the only problem is i get some vibration at 40-45 mph, and a weird 'pulsing' vibration at 60-65 mph. the vibrations feel more in the front of the car at 40-45 mph. and the vibrations at 60-65 mph feel down the middle of the car. He gave me receipts for a few things replaced, one being the drive shaft, less than a month ago xD. What is going on here??

    Maybe the driveshaft isn't balanced. I would start with a 4 wheel balance since it's the cheapest and easiest fix. If that doesn't fix it start looking at suspension components and driveshaft u-joint/steady bearings.

    Sounds like driveline issues. Remember, CVaxles are also called driveshafts, maybe that was what he had done.

    And the shaft to the rear diff is NLA, so hard to replace...
