Default Cartek chatters BAD! Please inquire within.....

Ever since i installed it it has chattered EXTREMELY bad. It has gotten alot better now that i have figured out how to feather it in from a stop but sometimes going from a slow roll it vibrates EVERYTHING! I swear the rea end is going to break off the chassis! And i have noticed if am shifting in a slow turn into 2nd the whole car Vibrates so bad it sounds like the transmission it chattering against my floor board!

Anything you guys can think of? Or is this normal?! Any help would be great! I can be positive the install was done correctly. It was done by my father who has been in the business for over 20 years.

Thanx ~eddie

It gets a lot better over time, around 1,500 miles. After I installed mine I thought the same thing and hated it. I still have a slight chatter but I can easily live with it.
