do you need the oem carrier bearing or can you just install it without the bearing? My car gets shaky at 80 mph could it be the driveshaft?

Agreed balance your wheels thats most likely your issue! If it were your driveshaft it would do it at any speeds

I had stock z32 on them before too and it did the same thing. Could it be anything else besides the wheels? I'm going to get them balanced too but just wondering if I needed to have anthing else looked at.

It could be something in your sus. too. Do you have a one piece drive shaft because then you cant even use that bearing
