Rattling noise under car.. Please help.. Ok, I am going to try and describe whats going on without sounding incredibly vague..
I recently had a 6 speed swap done on my car. The swap did not come with the outer toque arm mount (Which is the peice that pinches it to the tranny..) so my friends and I fabbed my outer mount off of my auto to work. It lasted about 2-3 weeks, and the bolt vibrated out at wot. I ordered the right mount, a new bolt and put it all on to keep the torque arm back in place. but there is still a rattle underneath the car somewhere. When driving slower through rough roads (i.e. neighborhoods, and this real shitty road toward my work) when going over bumps the back end/middle of the car makes a rattle noise. If I am driving around, and put the car in a low gear and goose it, something under the car flexes and hits a stop somewhere. It's not hitting the floorboard or anything, like I said its hard to describe. Could it be a tranny mount? It is obnoxious and embarrassing to drive with this noise rattling. It can be heard with the windows up, ac on, and radio on.
Any ideas would be helpful.
