Default 2 Topics: Vibration, and joining the 100K Club

Well as of right now I'm about 10 miles from 100k, Welcome me to the club guys!!!

Now on to the other topic, my car drives fine when pressing the gas, but at around 40 mph or higher, when I left off the gas, the car starts shaking. Its not a big shaking or anything, but its noticable. Any ideas what this might be? If you need more info, just tell me what info ya want. Thanks guys.

I'd start small. Have the wheel and tires balanced and the front end aligned. If the vibration is still there, do a total body off restoration. :jester

Edited to show I was being somewhat humorous.

Check the front bushing on the rear diff, when I lost the nut on mine the car would vibrate when you let off the gas.
