Ive had my swap done for a couple of months now(3rd gen 3sgte with 5sfe tranny) and i noticed that the car shimmys real bad when i drive..I figured it was just a alignment problem but when i took it in to get aligned, the guy said thats not the problem. He said the problem is the half shafts. My car is lowered approx. 1.5 inches and i guess that half shalfs are too long or something so he said i need to find some sort of different half shafts...does anyone know what im talkin about or what he is talking about. I would most certainly appreciate it. thanks guys

Ryan

I replaced both of my axles while doing the swap because the old ones were starting to go...I heard it may also be the motor mounts, but those appear to be good. So its definately not the axles...He estimated that they about about a half an inch too long on each side, so i dunno what to do, im not going to take out the springs, thats for sure..
