Well lets start with a couple easy things.

1st did you get snow recently? If so sometimes it builds up in your rim and will give you a vibration.

2nd you can check if your tires are in balance

The harmonic balancer is not supposed to vibrate (not visably)

I doubt you did any damage to the shaft since its your crank and its pretty hard to bend that.

Thanks for the reply my friend, but LOLOLOLOL sorry for that but here in my place the weather is always between 80 to 100 in Puerto Rico jejeje! but , you clarify the worst point the shaft is not that easy to get damage well, do you thing maybe be the CV joint sometimes when i turn to the right side i heard a clack clack clack like a damage axle, I going to check tomorrow both cv joints and wheel balance and post results, do you have an idea how much for cv joints both sides?

Thanks for your time apreciate

If its clicking when you turn then deffinatly you need a CV shaft if its bad enough that your vibrating then do it VERY soon.

LOL actualy it does snow here in Minnesota but not realy any so far this year.

it can either leave you stranded or break and take out any electrical wires in its area
