    At this point I assume it is, but we all know what assuming can lead to. What's the easiest way to tell which part is causing the vibration?

    Have you switched wheel/tires to make sure that it's not the vibration?

    got my parts, apparently the half-shaft wasn't included in the quote, but got it for a nominal fee. also picked up a socket for removing hub, breaker-bar, and hinges for hanging some closet doors in my house...now to find time to do all this work!
