  • Im totally lost

    Well I replaced my tranny mount...I followed the steps in the Haynes Manual. I bought the tranny mount from Auto Zone. It bolted right up. I torqued the bolts to the right amount. The old mount had cracks and it was real bad off. Well I took it out and tried to see if I had fixed the problem of something hitting the bottom of my car. Well that didn't fix it....I'm so lost cause Ive replaced everything that I thought it might be. Now I'm not sure what it is. I don't know if its my drive shaft, motor mounts or something else. I cant even give it half gas with out it shaking the car. And it feels like its coming around the tranny..but I replaced the mount with a solid one. Is there anyway to know if its my DS? Or my motor mounts? And I did noticed that my car kind of leans to the right a little...So would my springs be causing it? I'm just so frustrated.

    Check the torque arm and where it attaches to the trans. Make sure the arm is not damaged, it's attachement to the rear end is secure, and the fwd attachment rubber mounts are not worn or damaged.

    Check you drive shaft universal joints for wear (loosness) and/or damage.

    Check the torque converter to flex plate attach bolts. Make sure that they are tight.

      If you've got the two piece driveshaft check the carrier bearing? center part of the 2 pc shaft and see if it's shot. If it is replace with an aluminum.

          Yeah if it's a bearing, seal etc autozone will have it. If it's a DS or Tourqe Arm just get upgrades and aftermarket.
