(AT if that matters any). Bearing on passenger's side has been replaced when driveshaft was done. Engine mounts were OK last time I checked them. Could perhaps the alignment being significantly (like .5 - 1.5 inch excess toe-in) do it? Because when I first replaced the K+A frames, I replaced one of the tie rod ends BEFORE the frame was straightened and I adjusted the toe by eye. Come to think of it, that was the only change I made before it chattered. Hrm.. and that was before it went over to the frame shop (before I replaced the tie rod end and adjusted toe it was fine, even before frame fixing). Think its possible? But I don't /think/ (which means it really could be) it should matter, but what I guess is they designed the car with some limits for out of spec alignment and if those limits happen to be exceeded by that alignment.. could be possible. -- andrew -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
