Checking mounts will be simple. Axles, maybe, is it only during accelleration, or decel/turn as well? What condition are the CV joints in? What condition was the clutch in when you changed the tranny? ---

I don’t know if this applies, but usually when removing the 1/2 shafts I thought you were to make marks and line them up in a certain fashion or they would be prone to wobbling at speed. I.e. they’re supposed to be in one specific position. Could be just something I misunderstood/applies to something else. Who knows. ---

^^that does apply in certain situations. You genrally want to install both axles and the intermediate shaft in the exact orientaion they were in to begin with. ---

I’ve used it before and it works pretty well for how absurdly cheap it is. My suggestion is do it in layers (don’t fill it in all the way in one shot) so it dries all the way through. Do it on one shot and the center will either not cure all the way, or take forever. You should not put the mounts in the car until at least the following day. ---

i was going to actually bake it kinda like they bake car paint…i want to fill them and put them in my oven at 125 degrees for a couple hours…but i guess i could do them in layers AND bake them ---

I like Joe’s motor mount mod. I may try that if the poly-fill doesn’t work…or I’ll end up just getting Hasports. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/wtf/192242.md?page=2)
