Ask Smithy Xtra Vibration in Falcon V8 ute

I have spent a lot of time and money chasing a vibration in my AU3 Falcon V8 ute and recently discovered the same problem in my TS50 T3. It was suggested that maybe the torque converters were out of balance. Any thoughts?

It’s clearly an imbalance problem; the challenge is to track down the cause. It could be a problem with the torque converters but, as they’re both long wheelbase cars I would be focusing on the tailshaft.
