What was the problem? I just read a little higher and I see it was the Bearings.
Yessir.
Those who guessed "bearings" step forward and claim your prize!
Did your shop give you the old bearings? I would REALLY be interested in an inspection of the defective bearing. I am still struggling with the bearing being the culprit even though it now seems to be obvious.
Keep in mind, I was there for the whole re-installation of the unit and did some of it myself.
I had the bearings in my hands at one point, then tossed them out.
The rear one was fairly rough; I played with it for a while.
Again, I defer to the knowledge of the transmission guy - and the trip home was uneventful, too.
The car will get an extended drive this weekend. We'll see.
