Well the 83 center driveshaft U joint crapped out the other day. I pulled it 
out and replaced it (specs the same as older Mercedes) as well as the center 
bearing (same as BMW). I was careful to mark the yoke and shaft for reassembly. 
Now I have a vibration up to 5 mph and back again at 50 mph on up. I pulled 
it out again and dropped it off at a driveshaft balance place and they can't 
balance due to lack of tools. Any BTDT? Anyone know of a place in SoCal (San 
Diego/Los Angeles) to balance. 

Thanks in advance
