did you resurface the flywheel? I need to replace my front motor mount, and my new clutch also is slipping at 900 miles, so

idk if that can cause stress on the tranny I doubt it, but you should fix it either way.

I've been getting weird vibrations lately also.. and when I did my clutch install i noticed my motor mounts were starting to dry rot. Also when I down shift my car vibrates (only when i down shift). Wondering if this is because of the motor mounts?

Can you use the ENTER key and some different punctuation when you type?

You'll get more HELPFUL answers if you are more legible.

Be more specific on your problem. A vibration coming directly from your clutch pedal would definitely point to a problem that was not addressed when you changed your clutch. If it feels like the whole car is shaking, then there is a good possibility that one or more of the motor mounts needs replaced. I have diagnosed/replaced motor mounts on two vehicles, mine and a friends, and every time I ran across this problem, the vibrations seemed to shake the entire front end of the car.

Yes I've been noticing that. lol to replace those can I just jack up the engine then take off the cross member or do I have to take out the cv joints and all that stuff? Or Dont I have to do any of that because of the tranny mount holding the engine up?
