Default Shaking Lude

Sorry for the long post.....
Alright, my clutch went out on my 5th gen SH about three months ago. Me and Chad at RandD Motorsports fixed it, which came to pulling the entire engine but that is beside the point. Anywho, I drove it home and the car is pulling really hard into the grooves in the road and I have to fight the wheel just to get it to go straight. Then my ATTS light comes on, the pulling gets worse. Then my ABS light and ATTS light start to come on while i'm driving, and the wheel is shaking like crazy. So I go and get an alignment and it doesn't help a freakin bit. So I guess what I am getting to is, Has this happened to anyone else or does anyone have any clue to what may be causing my car to behave so weird all the sudden? Keep in mind the engine was pulled but by a professional and personally someone I trust since I was right there gettin dirty also, so its not from pulling the engine. Please ANY help/advice would be great.

its much easier to drop the cradle out!

When they puled the motor were the driveshafts removed, if they were and both the engine and transmission was removed then maybe when the g-box was drained they didnt refill it will both manual and auto transmission fluid or put the wrong fluid in the wrong hole (which will most probably cause it to act up) or even didnt fill one of them, Id hazard a guess the problems with the gearbox fluids!

Yeah but why would it pull like crazy to one side and also the abs light is starting to come on also. We filled the atts unit with ATF but I think that was it. What else needs to be filled up?

the other side of the gearbox take MTF!!

but it sounds like he might have put ATF in MTF hole and left ATTS unit dry, and it would pull like crazy because the unit trabnsfers the torque to each wheel so Itll be giving you extreme torque-steer
