ummm which way is the angle now?

how is tranny mount?

Codysv6rx7

It's a motor and tranny swap and the angle it pointed more towards the floor pan and away from the floor

midnight mechanic

suppose you put some washers on the bolts that bolt the trans mount to the body?

I had all kinds of problems with the drive shaft hitting the body after this idiot of a transmission mechanic ( J and J transmission of green brook or plainfield new jersey on route 22 ) replaced the clutch. He didn't put all the washers back between the the trans mount and the body. Also send my car out with a c clamp on the exhaust pipe.

Sounds like a great guy lol but I feel like the tranny would need to move up to get the angle better but there's no room it seems like the rear end needs to go downwards

Does anyone one if there's any ajustment for the diff (rearend) stock?

There is no adjustment for this. If the angle of the drive shaft is wrong, then something isn't installed correctly with the engine/trans. Lets see some pictures. Did you use the transmission mount isolator? It's a hunk of rubber and tow inches thick. Without it, the back of the trans would be way off.

Wow, what would case a bend like that? Someone try to jack up the car via the link?

Also, what blue did u use to paint the interior of the wheel?

Codysv6rx7

my best guess it when I would drop the clutch and burnout or drift it twisted the rear end and all of it wasn't ment for the high torch but that's just a guess

And it's bomb can blue message me and I'll look at the can later

You would need some non-rotary produced torque and sticky tires to bend the lowers like that, or some very hap-hazard person working on it. Regardless, by heating the arm and bending it back you have already annealed and fatigued the arm. The arm will now be much easier to re-bend

ya there just re bent to move the car around my barn without harming my driveshaft I can't remember but I saw adjustable links online for $200 but my buddy gave me the idea of a sprint car steering rod as a solution

Codysv6rx7

P.S. The lip pulling out of my barn was enough gorse to bend one just a bit
