Neil,

The vibration definately wasn't there before, but I did replace the rear
breakpads at the same time of the installation but I can't imagine that the
break would be causing a vibration like that. I also installed a new air
conditioning system in the last 2 months. There are a lot of factors that I
can't eliminate quite yet.

Thanks,
Blake
