Default FLT saves the day.

Just wanted to say thanks to Vince and Chuck for all the help.

Last Friday my brother was driving my car home from Speed Inc. He noticed that a viberation started a about 35mph. Got the car home. Found that the driveshaft had alot of play in it. Could move it up and down alot and output shaft seemed to have play in it.

So I took apart the rear tailshaft housing and found the yoke support bearing(in the tailshaft) was just haning on the output shaft. I tooke the parts over to FLT the next day. I talked to vince and He set me up with another tailshaft housing/new bearing/ new seals and swaped my speed sensor for me.
Took my driveshaft to get balanced.
Installed everything and test drove. Car drives ok now.

Thanks again.

No problem. You guys have helped me out in a pinch a couple of times now. Tell Chuck thanks for the info yesterday. I had line pressure at idle checked and it was 180psi at idle in gear. Car is only making 10 inches of vaccum. Swaped out the vaccumn modulator and put the electronics back in. Convertor feels much better. Pressure is back to 80psi at idle in gear.

Thanks again guys. You guys are like angels watching over my transmission.

By the way FLT did not buld my tranmission. But they have given me great adivce and help with some of the problems I have had recently.

When I do need my trans redone I know who is getting my buisness. FLT
