 vibration in handle
I just bought a used mudbuddy SD and noticed when I was running it I felt a vibration in the handle as I was running is this normal or is this the first sign the bearings are going out?

 Re: vibration in handle
Could be prop out of balance. Is this your first mud motor? There is always some vibration, how bad are we talking?

 Re: vibration in handle

 Re: vibration in handle
You mean the prop nut, or the seal cap?
