49020, RE: Starting my AWD Conversion

Sorry for the delay. I've been caught up building the engine (almost done). I'm pretty sure the seam sealer brand was Dynatron. That was the only one available locally. I have been happy with the results. I scoured Craigslist for Talons and Eclipses and almost bought a different car, but the guy flaked on me too many times. I just wanted a running 2G AWD with manual trans. Almost all of them were automatic and/or not running (just needs a tune up). I got desperate and bought one in poor condition. I was going to rebuild everything anyways, so condition was not top priority. I followed the Jafromobile videos to replace a couple of the driveshaft joints and yoke. That cut down on the noise dramatically. I also found that a driveshaft bearing mount was loose and that helped even more. When I pull the old engine, I expect to find a messed up crank pulley or incorrectly timed balance shafts to explain the remaining vibration. More pics will be coming.
