190E 2.6 flex disk
My '93 has a little play in the drive shaft due to a worn flex disk. At what point do I need to replace the disk? Will an excessively worn disk show up as drive shaft vibration etc? Do I need to remove the exhaust and center support bracket with bearing between front and rear drive shaft in order to repace the disk?

Thanks a lot for any and all suggestions!

Sound advice! As I inspected the front disk again I also noted the rear one had a crack so both are being replaced today.
Thanks for your input.
