So like most modders this spring I changed a lot of things on the car at the same time- added new headers, orh, 5c converter, new sve drag wheels, upper control arm rear lowering springs and adj solid pan hard bar and removed the front sway bar and added bmr lightweight radiator support.
Well since then I have noticed what I thought was vibration at around 65 ish mph, thought it was the cheaper wheels and tires, had them re balance and this removed some vibrations but still notice something going on, so switched back to stock wheels and tires that had dr on the rear, better but still not right- So getting to the point I was getting ready to pull the 1 pc driveshaft and re-install stock 2 pc to take this variable out while driving a lil further than normal on the eway then I guess I normally due. My buddy pointed out that it sound like wind not just a vibration -, hood shakes,( real bad at 117 at the dragstrip) so I kept my speed at 63 where you really start noticing it and dropped it into sport mode and down shifter to 5th nothing , then 4th and nothing - accelerated to 67 and it started to vibrate and shake and stayed the same at the same speed as I up shifted to lower engine rpm. Point being when we switched the front sway bar assembly / rad. support we left a plastic under car plastic pc off which I am assuming is causing this wind turbulence- has any one else noticed this- been so long since I have taking it off car, cant remember the reason we left it off but I think there was now where to reattach it. I think this is the cover you have to drop the change the oil. Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated - and sorry for the dam novel in explaining my question.
