  • know what i mean? any ideas?

    ever played with those tops you pull the cord and it just spins and spins and spins on the table? well when you bumped it, it would loose its stability, right? well for the past couple of months when driving my car and i shift out of 1st and get into second and continue with medium to heavy acceleration i would notice this feeling coming from the car and a sound like a wobble. I'm assuming something is wrong in my driveshaft area but i'm not sure, anyone got any ideas? It only did this during acceleration PLUS when i'm coasting along lets say 40 and i've got my shifter in mmmm 3rd... or 4th if i'm neither accelerating or creating umm pull on my drivetrain it feels like there is a tightness problem, like there is, darn whats the word... sluggish, no, linkage, no, its... crap i've forgot the word i fit perfectly with it. but it doesn't feel tight it feels like there is too much SLACK! (thats the word) in my drivetrain somewheres... any ideas? i assume my driveshaft but I really wanna wait til I find out what my dad is doing about a V8 (cause i'm gonna do a V8 swap either LT1 or LS1 or a 383 stroker he found)... any ideas will be appreciated...

      it's a stock two peice I didn't think i could... /shrug I'll probably drive up to my dads this weekend since he does own a transmission business but I just hate calling him all the time with my problems... and he doesn't understand and kinda says well its probably ok just bring it up here and we'll check it out, and i drive up there and he's says well tommorrow, well tommorrow, well tommorrow and the weekend is over (he lives 30 mins away from his shop in the city), he's 2 1/2 hours away...

      jeez i'm gonna stop posting lol i posted in the wrong section (drivetrain instead) and my lounge post could have went in the appearance i just don't know what i was thinking sorry mods... that's why i just sit back and watch... i'm an airhead (blonde)... mmm airheads...
