    So I went and played in the snow a bit today. Nothing too crazy but did use 4 lo off and on a bit (always stopped to shift out of it). When it was all done and I was heading home I noticed a significant steering wheel and shifter vibration. However this cleared up after a few minutes. Any idea what this is?
    Is it the throw out? Shaft? Any experiences out there?

    Snow/mud packed into rims can throw off wheel balance.
