^ what he said. I've never heard of it being "bent" but mine just completely ripped at the rear mount a few weeks back.

the car would make a funny rubbing/grinding sound only when i take off from a dead stop with a little speed. Also when i put it in drive it makes a clunk sound from time to time. i thought it was the trans mount but when i removed the mount it looks brand new plus its an oem ac delco mount. While i was under the car my leg hit the torque arm and i realized the two rear bolts where loose. I tightened em up now the car vibrates terribly from the rear at almost any speed.
