Well their new or rebuilt,(aftermarket converters) the one im getting is used off a car thats being parted out. so why when you remove a transmission (and converter) do you have to mark the plate and converter whats the purpose?

 

I would bet that your thinking of the driveshaft. I always make the driveshaft when I take it out, a driveshaft from time to time will make a vibration if not reinstalled to the pinion the same way. But I've never heard of a converter causing this. Also sometimes guys go to a poly mount when pulling a trans and that will make you feel normal drivetrain vibrations that you couldn't feel with the stock mount.

 

Sorry smart azz!!! J/k man I was thinking of my DeVille. Its been a while since I messed with my 4L60E. Thanks for the correction.

I have never had this happen, now if you change U joints and change the relationship from the actual shaft to the rear pinion flange (if equipped) and/or the front yoke. Then yes that most certainly will cause vibes, especially on a steel DS, not so much on an aluminum.

 

Ok just asking cause I dont want to take it back out till I rebuild one.(after lots of learning)thanks everyone.

 

One more for yas... Can I start the car? Reason I ask is cause I have a small oil leak and I want to pin point where its comming from exactly.

 

Yeah with no trans. Maybe I should support it with a jack? When you did it with your v8 did you have the flexplate on? I want to take mine off and run it, so I can see if its the rear main seal or not.

 

Damn it! Im just tryin to learn and do it the right way. lol!! So I can take the plate off or not? Come on help me! My wife is getting sick of me taking the car to work and shes trapped at home all day.

 

lol your right what am i thinkin duh!!
