frown rough ride

Hello I have a 96 ford explorer with 300k. ever since I got the thing
It’s vibrated at all speeds. I got the wheels balanced, I changed the
Plugs (no vibration in park) and different rpm doesn’t seem to affect things.
Also sometimes it rides smooth as glass usually after it has sat for a good few hours.
I’ve red in a lot of forums I can’t find my problem.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Re: rough ride

Check the driveshaft U-joints. This can cause vibration problems only when driving, but not at idle.
