Who has ever forgot to tighten up the bolts linking the engine and transmission and found the car shaking irraticly in reverse?

it has happen to me, and now, when i tighten the only THREE that i have, lol, the car still shakes, of course not as violent, like a little tiny bit,so i looked at the stage two clutch i just bought and the teeth are kinda chewed up where the input shaft goes, so i guess now i have to live with it until i get a new clutch...

please... please just let that car die...

only 3 bolts..come on, stop half assing stuff, youll need more then just a new clutch...

well its like ive always had thre bolts, and i had now problem, untili put the stage 2 clutch in, i mean before i did my own trans work, this shop did it....so maybe they took off that little "L" braket and through it away....im going to the junkyard, put i dont really know how it looks, does anyone have a pic, besides the one i got from searching? thanks...

:eek Uh, I'd say that clutch is hashed, and hope you didn't jack up the rear main seal, trans input shaft, differential, etc.

the trans should have 4 bolts holding it to the motor. The L brackets can be left off but I personally choose to keep mine. 4 bolts are not 6 bolts and 350hp relying on 4 bolts is not my way to risk money and time invested.
