Got a new passengerside axle and tie rod end
Image
Here's the tranny mount with inserts
Image
Overall rating of the tranny mount insert.
It's a pain in the butt to get in does it work idk cuz my tranny mount was bad so it's a brand new mount + insert.
No more shaking

I test drove last night like i said no more shaking but when I rev it up or I'm in 1st and let out the clutch it shakes violently I don't know why its doin that.. I didny have time to check everything out after I drove it...
Could it mean the axle isn't seated in completely... Or does that
Mean I messed my transmission up somehow...
It only shakes when I give it gas. Hmm

Love the ride!
Liked what you did with your tail lights. The little touches go along way. Was there any particular spray paint you had to use? I notice a lot of people are doing that to their tail lights and 3rd brake light.
