    It's a good idea to tighten ALL the nuts!

    It's been almost a year since I installed a new guibo but it looks like I forgot something.

    Heard a "swishing" sound that was speed dependent.

    Aluminum filings everywhere are never a good thing.

    Drive shaft acted like a lathe on the transmission.

    nice, ive had one fully fall out before, threw it off balance enough to cause a very noticeable shake at higher rpm

      Ohhh, glad you caught that before it got worse. Any damage to the trans? Or just a nice mark on it?

        Not a bolt-tightening issue, just too much torque.
