Hi there,
after exploring in different directions, I still have some vibrations in the drivetrain. The vibration is rpm-related, not speed-related. So I can for the most exclude the driveshaft, axles an tires. A strong suspect goes way to the transmission, flexplate, torque converter.
I have a complete set of parts here, including another rebuilt FMX as well as a new Pioneer flexplate with 164 teeth and 28 oz. imbalance and a new balanced torque converter.
I plan to replace the whole trans assembly and want to do this from below the car. The 71 Mach 1 has a dual exhaust with a crossover tube on height of the slip yoke.
Can the transmission be removed from the car without unmounting the exhaust System?
Experiences?
