Oh snap! I almost forgot. I compression tested my 88 and the front was 90-90-90 and the rear was 100-105-95. So that rules out bad compression but has anybody on here (this thread) ever had a broken smog pump bracket? because mine is broken and I am somewhat convincing myself that that is the cause, or at least assisting the cause, of my vibrating 7.

That vibration could also be your motor mounts.

13bchris

what about mine with cookie monster! haha thats alot of letters... 13bchris when do you feel the vibration? at idle? then its prolly the motor mounts but you should put a new air pump bracket on since you have 2 other sevens...

Check the U-Joints in the driveshaft and make sure there is no play.
You don't want it to get to the point where the driveshaft snaps on your way to work (>_<) I know.

Ditto Chris, when I replaced my u-joints, the vibrations stopped. But Eric, it recently came back mildly, I was thinking that the spider bearing in the u-joint isn't totally centered. How do you make sure its centered???? Without a precision tool, all I could do was a visual.

13bchris

well it vibrates mildly through out the rpm range but is excessive around 2.5k to about 3200 rpm. I do need to fix the air pump bracket this weekend.

I'll be there, Maybe with one side of LED tail lights (working on them now)
As for the driveshaft, I had bought a new one from mazdatrix, already balanced. It's great when they have everything in stock.
The stock driveshaft u-joints can't be replaced, but the aftermarket ones from mazdatrix can.
