Only thing i can think of was the heater hose mod, but why would it wait about 1400 miles to do this? ive been trying to figure out the noise and i did. the scratches arent too deep but u can def feel slight grooves. do i need a new DS? i will be undoing the heater hose mode tonight.

Where i think it rubbing, i know u cant tell well from the pic but the corner of that bracket is shiney like its been filed down and directly in line with the scratches on DS:


the DS:


edit: should probably add there isnt any real play in the ds, cant movei t up/down or side/side

if u let out the clutch and give it no gas u hear/see nothing, as soon as u break about 1900 rpms all hell breaks loose, vibrating, bouncing, and that. i just dont know anymore

Is there a problem with the torque arm/mount/trans mount thats letting the axle pivot an unusual amount? When my aftermarket arm broke, the e-brake bracket tried to lathe my ds in half. Looks similar to those pics only worse.

i dont see any visible damage to the torque arm/trans mounts, the rubber on the torque arm bracket is ripped on 1 side, but someone told me thats not going to cause whats going on.
