rotate it and beat on the flange with a metal hammer on all sides

 

i took the bolts out from the diff side.. i can take a pic if u want

 

so i got the driveshaft out.. i got the flathead screwdriver, a metal hammer.. along with some liquid wrench penetrating oil and jus went at it for like 30 mins
finally got it out.. whew.. so i put her all back together


i hope i put it back in the right way cuz i dont wanna go down there again..

anyways, i was wondering when i got the d/s out, from the trans end there was no tranny oil leaking at all.. is that a bad sign? like im lacking tranny oil? was gonna do the tranny oil anyways.. but jus asking if it could have contributed to the vibrations.

 

Whenever I've removed my driveshaft from my old NA tranny the fluid never came out.

When installing the TII trans though fluid came out like a mothabitch.

yeah i expected a lot of fluid to come out, so i left a pan underneath, but no fluid. when i put the good driveshaft in, i jus lubed up the trans end with some tranny fluid.

I didnt know it was just for n/a or turbo. i have an n/a btw.

i was just wondering if it indicated that I was low on tranny fluid and if being low on tranny fluid could have contributed to the vibrations i was experiencing.

 

No, man, I only had oil coming out when the tranny was tilted low at the back. If you have the car level (4 jack stands or whatever) that's probably the reason.

You seem to not be sure if you got the driveshaft in properly. Did you listen to us and mark the relationship b/w the flanges at the back? Did you make sure to put any balancing shims, which would be (if present) back in their spot? If so, cool.

Oh, and after all this work why *wouldn't* you check (or change even if recent) the fluid level when done?

 

it was on 2 jack stands in the rear not too high..

i did mark it, but the penetrating oil messed it up, i didnt have a punch to mark it also. i was hopin by 1RevvinFC3S's comment it would be ok.. AFTER A CLOSER INSPECTION OF THE OLD DRIVESHAFT, I SAW THAT THE JOINTS WERE CRACKED AND MESSED UP. OOPS CAPS

yessir ill change the tranny oil..

 

so i took it out for a spin.. no vibrations what so ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im so happy. anyways, thanks to all who listened to my problems and helped me out.
