Took a look over everything else after putting about 20miles on it. Bolts looking fit and bushing are all in good shape. I'm going to keep an eye on these over the next few weeks and make sure they are not coming loose. I was going to use loctite but I didn't want to use it if I didn't have too.

Update.
So after putting in the two bolts, it seemd that all my problems went away. Then today I'm driving and start hearing a clunking in the rear when engaging 1st and 2nd gears. Sounded like the CSB was going. Went down under and found out now the other two top mounted bolts were loose...and my new bolts were not as tight as they were a few weeks ago.
Should I go the loctite route or take it in somewhere to get it air-tool'ed down to the right torque rather than just hand tightening them down. I feel this is going to keep happening.
Does everybody run into this problem when they've removed the rear?555Garage - Kingston, PA
