I'm really confused. I have a 92 hatch, jdm b16a swap. I changed the drivers side top mount and put a new rear mount on. The car is shaking still when I am cruising at 60. or whenever I get on it pretty hard. all the mounts are good. the other day I noticed that my axle came out an inch or so and it was leaking fluid. so I put it back in and filled the transmission up. Would that mean my axle is out of balance or anything? and that is causing it to shake? or would my car need an alignment really bad or something? I'm trying to think of anything that would make it shake. any help will be greatly appreciated

 

lots of things can make a car shake, however your axles shouldn't just come out. i would check them out more thoroughly

 

well that happened to my friend as well and he put them back in and had no problems since. I guess I didn't put them in very good the first time. and they worked themselves out a lil bit, but I dunno... they are brand new Yonaka motorsports axles

 

To help seat the axles you may need to hit the end of them with a block of wood and a 3 lb hammer before you put the wheel or spindel back on.

 

Get your wheels balanced.

lol hes right! get them aligned too

 

His axle is coming out of the transmission and people are saying to balance the wheels?

Put the axle in and make sure it seats and doesn't pull out. If the problem is still there find a stock axle, put it in and see if the vibration goes away. Axles reman incorrectly cause vibration problems.

If you want to make sure it's not the wheels just swap them front to rear and see if the vibration has moved but work on the main problem of the axle coming out first, that should throw up a red flag.

 

Yes I'm pretty sure it's not the wheels but I can get it checked out. I think I need an alignment, but it only does it when I'm on the gas. when I let off the gas in gear or when it's in nuetral it's fine. And if I'm cornering on the gas it's a lot worse.

 

if it is happneing when you are on the gas i am pretty sure it is bad inner joints on your axles.

 

is there a way to tell if you take them out?

 

bad alignment, wheels not balanced, bad axles

You can have them balanced at some machine shops that do axles. Check your local yellow pages.
